I also received an e-mail from Alfred Lang but I have not opened it yet.
In the meantime, I did get this virus, but my virus scan program caught it
and erased it right away.
Should I open Lang's mail at all or just delete it??
It's subject is: Re: The human condition: CHAT and my interests

What do you say, Bill?

Looks like an xmca'er in Brazil has a mass mailer computer worm. Please
make
sure to be careful about opening attachments that seem to come directly to
you
from ANY xmca'er. Scan the attachment first. Make sure your virus
definitions
are up to date

The worm is pulling out old messages from the victim's mailbox and sending
them
to people who are in the addressbook. It fakes the return address to look
like
the message came from someone else. The message i received is below.

(I thought it strange that Alfred's email address would be from Brazil (note
the ".br" at the end)

And if you are in brazil and you are able to read this message, better do a
virus scan -- allegro
