Yep, I got it too. My software firewall (ZoneAlarm Pro) neutered it on receipt so no worries here. Matt Pobursky

I got the message, but didn't bother opening it. ANYTIME you get a message from ANYONE (even your mom) with an attachment that they had not previously told you they were going to send, DELETE it!! They could always send it again if it was meant to be a good one. --- In DTXpress@yahoogroups.com, "Brett" <baaron_123@y...> wrote: > Just got the post from Vernon about his studio and daughter, I went to

Just FYI: If you look at the full header of that email, you'll see it is a forged email message. Though the content is a paraphrase of an earlier message I sent to the list, I did not send this one with the virus.

Hey, Vern. I didn't think the e-mail was from you personally. I knew that someway, somehow, you got picked to be the subject matter of a virus attack...luckily, as far as i know, none of us have been infected, and life will continue to go on. I do appreciate you taking the time to re-assure us all though! See ya around the boards...

Luckily, I didn't have the time. By the way, remember when I was the Liberatus VIRUS at DTXpressions? Ah, the good old days. Ed
