Klez is one of the many Win32 that are so popular because the average user uses a virus enhancement and propagation tool called MS Outlook. Klez inserts a random name from the 'victim's addressbook into the from field of the virus mails it sends out. In other words, maybe one subscriber of this list has been infected by the Klez virus, but AFAIK no virus has actually been sent over the list. Regards, -- branko collin collin@xxxxxxxxx
