I'm upset at the response to this. I have not sent it here. This 
email was sent to my linux box and if you read it carefully, it 
states that a email was stopped before it got to me, not that I had 
the virus. I started up my MS box and opened outlook express, I 
haven't used it for emails for a year maybe? My last few emails came 
through again including this one. The virus checker (which is up to 
date) didn't detect anything. I took the same view as Chris, that our 
linux boxes were not immune, so I copied my linux files to my windows 
and used my virus checker,- result nil.
	I thought it could be a spam carrying virus, and if the sender 
did get through, you have a source/sender to watch out for.

	Hope this clears any misunderstanding.
