WAAAAAAIT A MINUTE!
I don't want to discourage anyone "being careful" (YES, BE CAREFUL;
BACKUP SOFTWARE, RUN VIRUS CHECKERS, KNOW WHERE SOFTWARE COMES FROM
AND *DON'T* PIRATE ), but REALLY! While I can imagine how a virus
could be distributed within email *HOW* on earth (okay, Qo'noS) is
this warning plausible. Is it a Unix Virus? (which Unix?) Dos?
Amiga? Mac?
This smells like an urban legend of sorts....
