FW: WARNING. Someone tried to send you a potential virus or unaut horised code
To all Just in case your virus checkers haven't picked it up, I received this and another similar message relating to two messages which were claimed to come from ifip_nm@bbcr.uwaterloo.ca. I've also had a third message apparently from the same source and entitled "[ifip-tc6] Mailman results for IFIP_NM", which did get through but which I think I shall ignore!

These are disguised email viruses (in this case used WG6.6 mailing list). The messages have various subjects such as "Thanks!", "Yahoo", etc. raouf -----Original Message----- From: ifip-tc6-bounces@lists.RWTH-Aachen.DE [mailto:ifip-tc6-bounces@lists.RWTH-Aachen.DE] On Behalf Of Radford, Peter Sent: Friday, March 19, 2004 5:14 AM To: TC6 (E-mail) Subject: [ifip-tc6] FW: WARNING.
