Although I haven't had any problems there is a script in the HTML code behind
Ivan's message. For e-mail I think plain ASCII text is the best way to go
because it takes less download time anyway and there is no chance of having a
script in the file. This worm is so new that Norton Anti Virus' site doesn't
have any info on it. Go to the McAfee web site if you want to know more about
it.
