This virus (asking for "advice") is widespread right now and has nothing
to do with gambia specifically.  DO NOT OPEN THESE ATTACHMENTS.  best,

Subject: Virus

Today I received seven copies of a virus that inserts itself into mailing
lists, and may have come from one of the lists above. The virus consists
of a message that says "Hi! How are you? I send you this file in order to
have your advice. See you later. Thanks." The "Subject"  line is different
for each message, perhaps randomly generated. My messages were addressed
from "Linh Bui", but others have received the virus from other names,
apparently fictitious. If you have received such a message, delete it
without opening the attachment, and report it to your departmental
computer technician.
