There is a long list of email spoofing viruses for windows. This just 
happens to be the one that popped up today. Tomorrow it may be one of 
the klez viruses as it was with the incident I had last fall, or still 
some other. Windows needs serious protection to survive.

I've now received three emails in the last hour spoofing Lang. My 
sympathies Lang, hope this guy is more aware than the one I had. I was 
amazed it took him 3 months to notice.
