I can see I'm going to have to start posting the list guidelines again.
Yes, it is quite against list policy to post/discuss virs warnings on the
list, be they legitimate or not. If you wish to continue the debate, do so

James, List Admin
However, a quick read of the list rules states do not send out virus warnings of any kind under any circumstances. Period.
