Well, no big deal, provided it did not infect anyone's silly unsecured
windows machines.
To all list admins: When you go to approve unsubscriber posts, please
check the contents very carefully. This virus was in a MIME message,
it contained a base64 encoded file marked as MIME type "audio/x-wav"
(IIRC) with a file extension of ".bat". I guess that is what makes a
misconfigured Outbreak Express run the thing.
Should we just reject or should we send them a nastygram also?
