Not me either, guv - honest.  I've been away, and my machines were all turned off during the period of the postings (I've scanned anyway just now and all is clean).  Whatever is sending these messages must be spoofing from elsewhere ...

Today I have received three content-free postings with dodgy
 attachments, at least one of which McAfee decided was a virus.  It did
not get much of a chance to look at the others.  This is a very unusual
 occurrence on my Groups.  Could you please do a virus scan of your
 machines if you use Windows, especially Keith, Nandiran and Sanjiva?
    

I'm running Ubuntu Linux .. so its not me :). It looks like someone's
machine is infected with the virus that looks at email addrs from lists
and posts emails to the list spoofing as members of that address. I
can't remember the virus but its not a very new one.

Everyone please scan your machines .. apparently its picked my address
as a preferred one to send as for some reason :(.

Thanks,

Sanjiva.
p.s.: If you use Linux, ahem, you won't have these problems!
