Re: copyrights and email

There is an identifier inserted in the document, but it is not transmitted
to Microsoft. That identifier can also be altered by those with rather
limited computer skills. That will be at best corroborating evidence in the
Mellisa case - the phone logs being the primary evidence.

The person responsible for creating the Melissa virus was TRACED by
Microsoft.  Microsoft was recently discovered to have inserted programming
code into the Microsoft Office suite of programs that sends a "globally
unique identifier" directly to a database at Microsoft.  Every time an
Office document was created information about the action and user was
transmitted unknowingly
