And, of course, it only affects those who use Outlook for email, or (possibly) those who use the windows address book to store email addresses.

This is a Virus............seems like an old one..........my virus scan picked it up..............just delete the email message without opening the attachment. As for what it does when you run it........I am one of the fortunate ones that does not know. {Original Message removed}

Shouldn't the stupid idiot who sent this script be banned from the list? Or was it sent blindly? Tim Hamel In a message dated 3/23/00 8:06:49 PM Pacific Standard Time, dgourlayKILLspamHOME.COM writes: > This is VBS.Freelink virus...

It was probably sent unintentionally (since the virus sends itself to everyone in the address book). Most of the listservers I'm on bounce any messages with attachments or html.

Hi, I just wanted to say, I am VERY VERY sorry for sending this to the list. Like an idiot I ran this dumb program and was infected with the attached virus/worm. Which automatically sent a copy of the message to the list. I now have a virus protection program, so this will not be happening again. Contact me if you have any problems with it. I hope you all can forgive me, Timothy Deterly -----Original Message----- From: pic microcontroller discussion list [@spam@PICLISTKILLspamMITVMA.MIT.EDU]On Behalf Of Tim Hamel Sent: Thursday, March 23, 2000 8:08 PM To: KILLspamPICLISTKILLspamMITVMA.MIT.EDU Subject: Re: Check this (NO..

People make mistakes. You have learned. That is the most that one can ask of another. Your error will act as a lesson for others. Keep makeing mistakes (uh... not this one again please! <GRIN>) and learning. Further posts on this thread need to be marked with an [OT]. If the archives are keeping attachments, can this one be deleted? --- James Newton (PICList Admin #3) spamBeGonejamesnewtonspamBeGonepiclist.com 1-619-652-0593 PIC/PICList FAQ: http://www.piclist.com or .org {Original Message removed}
