Virus


By now, you've all gotten the message that there was a virus sent to the
list.  I hope we've drilled the idea of NOT sending attachments to the list
enough times that everyone knew it was a phoney just by the fact that the
virus infected message had an attachment.
I traced the virus as best I could and apparently it came from the Chapel
Hill system that hosts the GWL.  Since the incident happened only once, it
would seem they have caught and removed the problem.
    Just to reinforce the reminder, NEVER OPEN ANY ATTACHMENTS SENT TO THE
LIST.  We have our own website for photos, so nothing like that should show
up on the main list EVER.
    Hope everyone is fine and free of viruses.
-Lon Rombough, list owner
