A flurry of SPAM, virii and assorted cyber-vermiculture seems to be
disrupting a lot of serenity lately. (Re: Recent missive from "System
Anti-virus Administrator" seen in this venue) The talking heads on TV are
not very helpful ("Rush out and get the latest update to your anti-viral
program...") If anyone in SVFIG has any specific knowledge of the subject
it could make an interesting presentation.
My own "SpamAssassin" filter has been very effective at depriving me of
opportunities to enlarge my bust, make millions through partnerships with
various Nigerian businessmen, and accommodate the earthy yearnings of
innumerable Ukrainian maidens. But it does not block the virii. Those
that appear to contain links to non-existant websites are especially
intriguing.
