Subject: Penpal


As noted by another post, the PenPal virus is a hoax.  It origonally came
into being as a way of killing off an electronic chain letter with PenPal
in the subject line, but has long outlived its usefulness in this respect.
There is a U.S. government WWW site that lists all virus hoaxes, as well as
real viruses.  If anyone is interested, I'll did up the URL.  It is useful
in situation such as this.


Cheers,
