Subject: Request for password




Someone from the ip address '203.172.28.55' requested a temporary
password for the Username 'blanked' for the website 'JDEList Forums and
Mailing Lists'. This is a temporary password that can be used if you have
forgotten your original password. If you did not request this, please
ignore this message. The temporary password for this Username is --
blanked


Attached to the message was the BugBear virus.

I don't mind getting viruses but I do get nervous when I get viruses that include references to sites that I visit.
 
Brother,

I think that we all got it, I got it. When I saw that there was a attachement I did not open it. I will try to get more info on this.

Christian
