Hi All,

I think that either someone may have managed to get a list of addresses through
this group or someone has this group address in their address book which an
infected PC is using because I have had many virus' sent via proffesional
people who do exist and often have an imaging based background.

Maybe this is a reason why we should consider a central web based forum instead
of mailing group in the future.

Laurence.
