-- Howdy Sabra; I just realized something: You're on a Macintosh like
myself and a couple-a others on the SMD... And you-all are running MacOS
X... That's supposed to be relatively impervious to virus and such... So
I don't see how this file could infect you, unless it's specifically
directed to attack Macintoshes. It seems to me the only thing you have
to worry about is passing it on to other recipients in your emails. If
you have Little Snitch, that should catch any unauthorized attempts to
access the Internet by that worm.

Hope this makes sense...

-- Howdy all, sorry I haven't graced y'all with my words of wisdom
lately, but there's not been time... Not even TRYING to keep up with the
Jan/Amalgam stuff... I think it's over 60 percent of posts (!)...

... and re: SE Bond; I posted <RB's> method changes before... don't
y'all read anything I write?????????!?????????
