Possible virus

The message on this newsgroup 'I just pissed my pants' by ScottZf gave me a virus warning message when I tried to open it and read it. Was that a false virus warning or does this message in fact have a virus?

Thanks,
Fred

I don't know, did ya?

Seriously, trust your virus protection. If you run Norton, quarantine it and then permanently delete it. Someone sent one to me this spring (email type virus) just before I went on vacation. When I got back, there were 66 more.
