VIRUS WARNING

The original message that the virus infected DID come from the list and therefore
the infected computer is (or was) a subscriber to the Boatanchors list. That's why
I posted the warning to the list. The messages are NOT coming via the list itself.
The message was 'sent' by the virus running in someone's 'puter.  The sender's
address is a fake.
