JR   I remember there was a way to do this within TB! but I've forgotten
JR   how. Can you help me with instructions, please. TIA

Untick receive and tick delete for the offending message, and then
proceed.

JR   Any guidance?

1) You're safe. This virus has to be executed to infect you. Saving it
   to disk won't hurt.
2) You may be in a loop. You have been sent the virus. TB is receiving
   the infected file.
3) As TB writes the infection into a temporary file, PC-Cillin is
   locking the file out.
4) This may force TB to try and get the message again and fail to
   complete the download each time.
5) You are safe, even if PC-Cillin didn't lock the file because TB
   won't run it automatically and you've had the heads up not to run
   any attachments.

I had exactly the same today (again).

MDP 1) You're safe. This virus has to be executed to infect you. Saving it

PC-Cillin won't allow to save it. ;-)

MDP 2) You may be in a loop. You have been sent the virus. TB is receiving
MDPthe infected file.

No, it is not a loop. If you have automatic check every xxx minutes
set, then you will get this message each time TB tries to download the
infected message. In my case, every 5 minutes.

MDP 4) This may force TB to try and get the message again and fail to
MDPcomplete the download each time.

Exactly.

In order to stop this error message from occurring and the PC-Cillin
warning to pop up, you need to delete the message direclty on the
server. You can do it with TB's own message despatcher (untick
receive, but tick delete), or pine, or the web interface if your
provider offers one. The problem is that neither PC-Cillin nor TB tell
you which account this infected file is on, and you have to check your
account logs for this error message:

!21/06/2001, 10:37:31: FETCH - [Inbox] could not store message (file name - 
C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\bat5122.TMP)

You still don't know which email it is, so if there are many on the
server, you will have to go looking.

Of course, you could also disable PC-Cillin and download the infected
file. As long as you don't run it, you are safe.

Thomas.
