Hi Chris, Bill, and all other subscribers:
A message with the subject:
A very nice game
was sent to the IEEE (emc-pstc) for posting by
our listserver.
The original message contained a virus known
as KLEZ.G.
The IEEE computer detected the virus.
This virus was stripped from the message by the
IEEE (computer gemini2). Then the remainder of
the message was distributed by the listserver.
The message you received from emc-pstc did not
contain a virus.
One of the characteristics of the virus is that
it replaces the "From" line with a random address
from the local address book. So, we don't know
which subscriber's computer is infected with the
virus. We only know that jmw was included in the
subscriber's address book.
More info on this virus can be obtained from the
usual sources, one of which is:

Rich
