Hi,

the email 'Product Impact and Market Analysis' from '\x01.\x01@prodigy.net.mx'
seems to include a virus in the attachment. Maybe you want to warn your
customers or delete the message

Yes, people are sending that virus around on mailing lists.
If folks are foolish enough to use Windows to read email,
there is not much we can do to help. The best advice is
don't open attachments you get in email, or simply don't
use Windows. This is not a new problem.
