I had the same thing happen when I checked my e-mail. As I moved down my
many e-mails a pop-up window appeared when it was the next one. It said
that "something" had been detected, and that I should not open that
particular e-mail. I did not say that it was a worm or a virus, but that
there was an unsafe element to the e-mail. I deleted it from immediately
from my system.
I don't want the new member to get the impression that she is not welcome in
the group. There have been a lot of viruses and worms going around. It
would be advisable for everyone to get a good virus screen program. There
are several good ones that have free downloads.

I don't remember any 'attachments' to that mail, and so how
could it infect you? I have a virus screener and it didn't scream
over that one....a regular email message unless you have an
attachment to open, can't infect you.
Anyone else find something?
