Those of us who tried to respond to the virus messages to
alert the sender(s) of the problem may not have gotten
through.

Notice that the virus apparently changes the e-mail return
address of the sender to prevent any alerting replies.

Here is the return information for this message:

Any operating system worthy of the name wouldn't process any
kind of virus and ISPs should live up to their obligation of
Providing Service and bounce any message containing a virus.
And, as long as I'm editorializing off-topic: down with spam, too!

Well, after all we've been through together, I hope you understand
that modern computer keyboards can still be configured exactly the
same way, so that the same keystrokes produce the same desired
text, without any changes being made to The Unicode Standard.
