Is there some particular reason why Lucas Klein would forward a
virus-laden attachment to the Pound list, or was this inadvertant on his
part?  If deliberate, perhaps Sylvester Pollet should have a conversion
with Mr. Klein about list etiquette.
 
In general, don't open attachments unless you're confident of their
contents.  Or, if you must, save them to disk and then scan them with a
virus scanner, like Norton's or McAfee.
 
Maybe it was a fascist virus.
