No, we don't _know_ that it is the result of virus activity. Anyone who says they do _know_ is lying. You cannot possibly know all the permutations of all the virii (<- just for you) out there, so how do you _know_ that file was not meant to be sent?
Des just posted log entries showing that the message from "Simon" was infected with a virus, so yes, you do know. We're talking about messages that are cleaned up with Xtra's mail AV, and then sent out via your MTAs, not every single virus there is of course. -- Juha Saarinen Sorry, posted privately by mistake, reply to Juha as follows: (with English corrected) And I'll put it back again, that we don't know the attachment _is_ the result of virus activity. We can make a very educated assumption, but we don't know for sure. - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
