Heads up- i got a virus from someone on this list. It's the lovely nimbda virus... I am not sure who sent it (i have a hunch though) but it infected 1452 files within an hour. I may have passed it along to others too. None of my other machines are infected- just one machine. Sophos Anti Virus cleaned it up. I had all of the recent micros**t security and system patches. I also had the latest sophos IDE's installed. Those 2 measures didn't stop the virus though.

cheers matthew
