I'm not denying it was suspect, I was just passing the info, I had already scanned, looked, and deleted.

Right. Exactly.

Think of it.

You come home to your apartment building. You see the dumpster, as always.
You see crime scene tape around the dumpster. And a fellow apartment dweller tells you:

    "They just took the dead body away. It was the       guy from Apt. 5C."

Do you then say to yourself:

"Don't worry, it was just a note from the police, saying

    the body is gone, now"

?

Not that I know it was a virus but

  1. What kind of list name is "Nobody Win"?
  2. Why put a BINARY attachment in Word97?
  3. Why the interesting/compelling title in the subject.

Maybe I am just paranoid, but I'd like to hear from Jared on this one, too.

Actually it was just a note saying that the list removed the binary attachment.

Maybe I am being paranoid, but a smallish Word97 file containing binaries? Can you check into this poster's intentions, Jared?
