Dear Ken,
When the OSA virus trashed my system a couple months back, I sent
everybody in my address book a warning. Yesterday I, too, received
the message you mention below. My virus checker said it was
contaminated and would not allow me to open it. I replied to the
sender, kindly, telling him that. I got a reply that contained only:
":)". This morning I got notification that my previous message of
warning had not gone through to several people, all with BYU e-mail
addresses, after 48 DAYS! Putting all that together with your message
below suggests somebody with access to BYU is sending a virus to
everybody on my mailing list. Ergo, I'm CCing this warning to
everybody on the list. Don't open the message. Kill it in place.
And join me in a salute to the Catholic hacker who obviously is trying
to give BYU a bad name!
He'll read this, I suppose. In his honor, then: Ya, kaesaekkiya.
Kat'un kyoinursso nomo komawora. Ttong chom mani mogoraya. Cham,
mogodo morugenne.
Love,
Bruce
