Hmmm, and conveniently stored in a MIME'd file format. I wonder what could

When you reply to spam that decent servers delete, can you not include the
URL. Cheers.

You mean after making it obvious that it is either spam and/or a virus?

If they're that bloody stupid, they deserve to click it.

Hi,

WTH did utter the following words of wisdom:

Legally speaking, by reposting the URL, you are culpable for the
propogation of the virus.

That said, it's a pathetic little script virus which relies on some holes
in Windows to get through.

Sometimes I think finding holes in Windows is easier than finding the beer
in the fridge!

Its a shame people don't take windows back and complain like they would
with say, a faulty VCR.

Don't be ridiculous. What an 'American' thing to say.
