Warning - a virus/worm just got through CLICK4HP listserv and was
distributed to most subscribers, other than those whose systems caught it.
Allan Strong [[log in to unmask]] has been hit with the "Jokes" virus or
worm that gets into the email addresses on his system and automatically
spreads the virus to all on the address list. It does this without the
originators knowledge - and if you open the email attachment it will do the
same to your email address system.  Please delete the message and its
attachment.
