I actually got a virus from this site when i registered. It was an email from [email protected] with an attachment and the email said "hello, i don't bite ;-)"

thankfully the antivirus software picked it up.

<font color='#000080'>Suzanne, Parahandy,
Did you make a note of the attachment names? If so, what are they?
Suzanne, my initial thought is that it was spoofed... which makes it very hard to track down!

Thanks,

abucks

Actually, its called Bagle (as in Kosher roll) rather than Beagle (as in vanishing Mars probe) and its another variation of the same one which was going the rounds a couple of months ago. <Pedant mode off>
