On another smaller mail list I'm on, we've had 2 attempted infections of Bugbear and in both cases the e-mails actually did come from who they said they did, although the domain info was forged. If nobody has, it would definitely be worth contacting "thelanes" at whatever their real e-mail address is and making sure their computer isn't infected. -Steve And following Nigel's practice, since there's no Scottish content in the above, here's a tune for my penance: X:5 T:Muschats Cairn C:James Porteous S:San Francisco Scottish Fiddlers Newsletter 02/02 Z:Steve Wyrick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 6/11/02 N:From The Skye Collection K:G M:4/4 "G"G,B, D2 B,D G2|"G"DG B2 "D"DCB,A,|"G"B,D G2 DG B2|"C"cAGF "G"G2 G,2:|!
