Hello,
I've received 5 or 6 copies of HTML encoded email from email addresses known
to be subscribed to Homeopathy egroups lyghtforce & minutus.
These can be DRASTIC for computer users who
a) don't have up to date virus protection software
b) have older verions of MS Internet Explorer
it is possible that affected computers have been infected with a "trojan
horse" and "keystroke logger" which make it possible for passwords, credit
card info, etc, to be passed on to a third party (the virus' designer.)
If you fall into category a) or b) above, please see
