I just want to reassure people that I have interactive anti-virus software that scans everything all the time. That was updated only yetsreday, and today I have done an additional scan and found nothing. I know this is an ongoing problem, but not me folks! I've been getting such notifications for a few weeks, usually in the form of allegedly bounced messages from me (actually spurious)which supposedly could not be delivered because they contained a virus. Since I use a Mac, which AFAIK cannot be infected with Klez, I just delete the messages. I know enough not to open the attachments (although I doubt that my Mac would be able to do so if I were foolish enough to try). The notifications always have addresses of LUGers, so I presume some dimwitted hacker (probably a N***n or C***n user) is playing a 'joke' on many of us, subject to the limitations of his rather feeble imagination.
