URGENT URGENT URGENT READ THIS FIRST Re: cantorial recordings

CHAVERIM,

DO NOT OPEN THE ATTACHMENT HAPPY99.EXE, OSTENSIBLY SENT AS PART OF THE MESSAGE

From: "robert wiener" <wiener (at) mindspring(dot)com>
Subject: cantorial recordings

IT IS A "WORM" PROGRAM AND WILL INFECT YOUR (WIN/DOS) SYSTEM. (MACS AND
UNIX VARIANTS ARE UNAFFECTED. DON'T GLOAT!)

OK, I'll stop shouting. This is NOT alarmist hyperbole like those periodic
messages that claim that ASCII (text-only) email can erase your hard disk.
This is a program, and you don't want it infecting your system.

I'll send more information later. We just dealt with these pond scum on the
78 mailing list. They forge a sender's address, attach this file and wait
for the excitement to begin.

Ari, I think you will have to look into server-side virus checking and
deletion going forward. In the meantime, Norton Anti-Virus finds this worm,
and there is no substitute for individually protecting our systems.

All for now,

Joel
