This virus (asking for "advice") is widespread right now and has nothing to do with gambia specifically. DO NOT OPEN THESE ATTACHMENTS. best, ylva ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, 25 Jul 2001 09:47:14 -0700 (PDT) From: Ter Ellingson <[log in to unmask]> To: Kelly Wood <[log in to unmask]>, Douglas J. Mathews <[log in to unmask]> Cc: [log in to unmask], Ethnomusicology Faculty and Staff -- Ellen Taylor <[log in to unmask]> 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. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ter Ellingson Associate Professor, Ethnomusicology, Comparative Religion, South Asia Studies; Adjunct Assoc.
