[atlantaprog] Re: Another virus

I've gotten a TON of these. Fortunately, being a Mac guy, they don't 
affect me... but they still clog my inbox. Apparently this one 
circulates the same way as Klez, etc. it hijacks your Outlook address 
book and sends itself out to your list, with a bogus return address 
from someone else on your list. Apparently many folks have received it 
with MY address as the return... pisses me off!

Each copy has the same body copy, so I have set my email filter to 
delete any message with that particular text string in the body copy. 
Seems to be working!
