I'm getting them as well. Several a day. I just got one with the senders name as Joel Cort, but the source said it was from the listerv for the Vanagon List. It may originate off of Joel Corts computer, sent to the Vanagon List by the virus working the address book on Joels computer, and the Vanagon list servforwards it out to everybody. It looks like Tom Carrigton has the software set to strip e-mail attachments and that is where the virus actually resides. The result is the message appears as gobbledegook!! To be safe just delete the thing. But they are a nuisance, even to have to do that.
