[Excalibur] **VIRUS**

[Josh Hanson]

Hey all,

In case whoever has the infected computer doesn't pick up on the 
significance of that last message that was sent to this group, I 
thought I should mention it. Someone who's subscribed to the Excalibur 
mailing list has their computer infected by a variant of the Klez 
virus, which was trying to spread by sending itself to this list, and 
failed because it was detected by Hampshire's virus scanners.

The email said that it came from trconnolley at wisc.edu. That's probably 
not true; rather, the email actually came from somebody who has that 
email address in their address book. Anybody know a UM-Madison student 
named Timothy Ryan Connolley? If so, you've got a virus on your 
computer. (If nobody knows that person, then the virus must have picked 
up that address several generations ago, and could be on anyone's 
system. I don't know if the virus is smart enough to do that, but It 
wouldn't surprise me.)

By the way, if you do know that person, you should let them know that 
their computer is probably infected, too.
