I get so tired of all the "Virus alert!!!!" message storms that
frequent the various mailing lists I subscribe to. These things
are totally off-topic and waste a tremendous amount of bandwidth.
Mark is right. If you don't want viruses, don't use Windoze!
If you do use Windoze you have a big bullseye painted on your
computer and you just need to learn to live with the problems
that come from that.

HP-UX 11.0 with elm as the frontend for sendmail. I laugh
at your impotent puny viruses! Ha! Ha! Ha!

[Actually a lot of 'virus warnings' are also filtered out as well as virus
laden messages themselves. So you don't see as many virus alerts on Team.Net
lists as you otherwise might. mjb.]
