I got an email with a virus in it. It came from an email address that sounded like a diver (had spearfishing adventure stuff in it). It went to my "divemail.com" address which is primarily used for this BBS. I tried to REPLY to the email to alert the person whose computer was hijacked by the virus, but the address was reported as bad by ATT.NET

The attachment I got was "setup.doc.scr" although the attachment can have many names. See the alert about the BADTRANS virus on McAfee for more information. Watchout everyone, a virus in in our community.

Safe diving and computing.
