I hate to mention viruses on any list but I just received what sure LOOKED like a legitimate "returned mail" from the Nav-L list server, WEBKAHUNA, which claimed it was rejecting my posts because too many of them contained viruses. (Knock wood, I've always managed to keep a clean system, going on 20 years now.) I can guess that "every" member of the list will get this message, it is a very common spoof but folks keep falling for it...so PLEASE, IF YOU GET A MESSAGE LIKE THIS, DO NOT OPEN THE ATTACHMENT! It is probably being sent out by a LIST MEMBER who is unaware their computer is a "zombie" running attack software. ==================================================== Return-Path:Received: from tugen (catv-5062c994.catv.broadband.hu [80.98.201.148]) by aloha.webkahuna.com (8.11.4/8.11.4) with SMTP id i2MJXvC06220 for <20040321233658.RLKY8554.viefep16-int.chello.at@olelo.webkahuna.com>; Mon, 22 Mar 2004 13:33:57 -0600 Date: Mon, 22 Mar 2004 20:38:54 +0100 To: 20040321233658.RLKY8554.viefep16-int.chello.at@olelo.webkahuna.com Subject: Notify about using the e-mail account.
