That's open to contention. I don't think anybody would set up his/her system to send out files on purpose. It would be accidental, or perhaps more accurately, due to malicious activity. You could argue that Xtra is compounding the damage by blindly sending out the files, when it knows that it's the result of virus activity. -- Juha Saarinen 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? - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
