John & others: As Jack said, I do run Norton Virus Scan on both incoming and outgoing email, as well as Norton Internet Security firewall protection. I only have Jack and a few friends in my address book. I am very familiar with the Klez virus as it is quarantined several times a day by Norton at home and at work by 4 different computers. I have been downloading virus updates daily from Norton, but they don't seem to have been able to do anything but block it so far. It is not possible to determine who has really sent this virus because it steals addresses from address books and uses them to mask it's real source. I get emails from people I don't know, saying that I have sent them a virus. They have to be getting them from someone who has my address on their computer, perhaps even from someone they don't know.
John: Did you get my email of a week or so ago re: Dr. Cox's interest in a Maze Alumni "reunion"? I never heard back from you, and that may have been the email I sent, as it went out the first time with a typo in your address, was returned to me, and I forwarded to you at your "nsr" address. If you didn't get it, let me know, and I will resend it.
