Me too - although it did some damage here: after reading the "infected" mail
it took me about 5 minutes and several pieces of solvent-soaked tissue to
get my monitor screen cleaned (unfortunately, I had just taken a mouthfull
of red wine when I looked at the posting; luckily, I was able to save my
keyboard by shielding it with my hands). Although, making a living (partly,
I also offer translation services) as a PC-consultant, I have to deal with
viruses more often than most, it's been a while since something in a mailing
list posting has made me laugh like that.
MtFbwy,
