Once again, please do not post (computer) virus alerts to this list.

It serves no real purpose other than generating more off-topic discussion.
Virutally everyone on the list joined to discuss peppers.

It also causes, especially in this case, a large number of rejected messages
and digests due to people quoting parts of the virus text, which is caught by
various email anti-virus software and bounced.  This creates more for me, again
to no purpose, and prevents some subscribers from getting all the messages and
digests.

The list software has an extremely good filter which has prevented virtually
all spam/viruses/etc from being posted.  I don't believe you will get a virus
from the list.

Thanks for your attention

Mike
