May I respectfully suggest to ALL members of this listserv that they
implement the measures suggested by Ms. Spacone in her last message:

A)"Please email me directly at ronna.spacone@ed.gov if you have any
questions about the rash of infected, blank, and otherwise bad messages on
the discussion list(s)."  

and specially,


B)"please be sure to update your anti-virus definitions
and scan your systems on a regular basis." 

On my campus, Technical Support Services updates security and anti-virus
systems on the servers Friday.  This practice, started in February, has
managed to stop the spread of approximately 9,672 instances of viruses
through email, has discovered and deleted 15 infected files on the campus
wide drives, as well as numerous other exploits that are Network Operating
System and service specific.  Faculty and staff are required to follow
update procedures on their own campus computers after the update is over.
Updating your anti-virus software is the best way to protect yourself (and
others) from those pesky bugs.
