You're right, its Windows-only (as usual), and the hostile attitude (not you, Shawn) that people get when they see it in their mailbox absolutely amazes me. For one, the person sending it more than likely had no idea he sent it, and two, the person receiving it would himself have to be a complete moron to infect himself with it. If you don't run Windows, or at least don't read your mail with it, which I assume the vast majority of the users on this mailing list don't, then you couldn't infect yourself even if you were the most inept twit on the face of the planet. So why all the worry and hostility? I only bring this up because I see the same hostile ignorance on many of the other mailing lists I'm on. -- Chris Dillon - cdillon@wolves.k12.mo.us - cdillon@inter-linc.net FreeBSD: The fastest and most stable server OS on the planet.
