Someone on the list is propagating the virus - either thru forwarding
email addresses out to their machine or invoking the scr file to do a
"Melissa" thing. Please everyone who gets this mail scan your machines
for the virus - you should be able to scan your system at McAfee.com
using their online service.

Hi,=20
I know some of you were chasing down the bugbear virus.
someone just tried to hit me but norton stopped it.
I don't know how to track an e-mail from its source.
it said it came from floor*travelocity (the * meaning @, i didn't
want it to be highlighted)=20
The subject line said MetaExchange[T765599] Bought: Enemy at the
gat...
The message read:
THIS IS YOUR TRANSACTION RECORD
This message is to notify you that MetaExchange(tm) has arranged
a deal on your behalf with another party. You should contact the
other parP
yes it was misspelled
There was an attachment to it
it is called
law.txt.scr[72.3KB]
like i said i don't know how to track anything down but i thought i
should post this so everyone can see what to stay away from and don't
open anything that even resembles it.=20
I hope this helps someone from getting it.
Thanks all,
