Ted and all,
this practice among virus creaters has become wide spread and is
seen on nearly all sites and lists.

It has nothing what so ever to do wih the apparrent senders of
these messages!  Many viruses now search the address books of
infected machines and use found addresses and names not only as
destinations, but as fake senders.

About all list servs can do is refuse any and all attachments
which might not be a bad idea, many allready do that.

About all us real frail folks can do is say, if it doesn't make
sense, then it is trash.

As for screen readers that can't be shut up,well when a certain
company said they were going to be the biggest in this field, I
knew I wouldn't want to have anything to do with them, and I
don't. biggest is never best!


Wish us all luck, we need it!
