Judging from the message lines, I'm going to shoot from the hip, which I
often do anyway.

Not long after I installed Windows 98 on a separate partition of my big
hard drive on my main computer, I started getting weirdness and loss of
files not too much unlike what I experienced back in the days of the
AutoStart worm in 1998.

At first, I was in total denial and disbelief that a Wintel
virus/worm/whatever could hurt us Mac users. In many ways I still am. I
now don't know what to think. I privately believe the Klez virus/worm
CAN affect Macs. If I'm mistaken, I hope someone will disabuse me of my
notion that there are cross-platform diseases.

It took me a few minutes to rid myself and my system of AutoStart. It
took three WEEKS to get rid of the Klez symptoms.

I'm on other mailing lists that are badly infected with Klez; they can't
seem to eradicate it.

Am I mistaken, or does this thing actually have the ability to infect
and/or damage Mac systems???
