  Listserv moderators' nightmare.  A colleague accidentally 
sent me a virus in an attachment.  The virus then generates an email 
with a subject line similar to "Great Shockwave flash movie" with an
attachment, Creative.exe.  If you receive from me or others such
an email, delete it.  I think the virus was expunged before it 
could propagate emails to the list or others, but just to 
be sure I am sending this warning.  

  To avoid distributing a virus to the 2300 colldv-l readers,
several months ago I stopped posting forward messages 
with attachments.  If you receive a message apparently from me with any
attachment, delete it.  

  

Thanks,
