=====================
Fellow List members,

I'm terribly sorry to have inflicted this thing on
you.  

It's apparently a script, not a virus.  The Linux
64bit OS doesn't have many virii and I am running both
a virus scanner and a firewall on that computer.  It
started sending those 'lovely' e-mails you got as soon
as I opened what looked like legitimate e-mail from
someone on another List.

Please use a little extra caution.  Delete any e-mails
touting a 'Net Graphics Site', especially if they are
about 132KB in length.  You might even want to delete
any mail from me for a week or so.  I'm on a lot of
e-mail lists and mostly lurk.

Again, I apologize.  I take precautions, but this one
blind-sided me.
