Subject:      serious virus problem HEADS UP and please DONOT continue this

I always hate people talking about nonvanagon content
but I think this is worth presenting.   Someone sent
me a virus with a subject heading from the vanagon
list.   This was the topic about "spongy brakes" that
made the rounds on the list.   I do not believe that
it was a list member who did it but somehow it has to
be indirectly related to what goes on the list as it
was an exact match for the subject heading from
someone who could appear to be from the list but not
gerry.
The attachment which contained the virus had a .pif
extenstion.   I have yahoo mail and scan it and
deleted it with the yahoo virus protection so it
caused no problems.   Only point I want to make is
that just because it comes with a subject heading that
developed from the vanagon list, don't assume that it
is from the vanagon list.   Look carefully at the file
extenstions of any attachment.
             sorry to take this time, gary
