Another virus message: "A very funny game"

Several list-members have informed me of a message so-entitled containing
the KLEZ.E virus purportedly sent by me. This is another message using my
spoofed e-address and was NOT sent by me (it's a Windows virus--I use a
Macintosh). As I have said already in the past week and some others have
said as well: if the message--even if it has the [b-greek] header--contains
an attachment, don't open it but delete it. Curiously, this message did
actually reach the list and has appeared in the "Read Messages" menu,
whence I have now deleted it. I have not received a distributed copy
myself. I have no idea how we can protect the list from this sort of thing,
but list-members are once again advised to be careful, especially about
messages that contain an attachment and also have no clear indicator of BG
content. Don't panic, just use good sense.
