Katherynne, I apologize if I offended you. Believe me, I would never want to do anything, or say anything that would do that. The contaminated message I received was a message from "ask the dietitian", but NOT from your server. It was from an infected computer subscribed to your list. I do not know "who" it was from exactly because I deleted it immediately upon having problems when I opened the attachment. I should have realized that you would never send out an attachment! My computer sent out infected messages before I realized what had happened. I sent the same message to everyone on my "contact list". Right now, I think I'll go crawl under a rock somewhere....

Dear David, I personally scan and approve all messages to "Dietitian," and have updated virus protection on my computer. My computer is virus-free. However, I checked with the "Dietitian" webmaster to be doubly sure that the list is not infected. I fear you are the victim of a hoax. Following is the response from the webmaster: "Mr. Meigs did not get his virus from the 'Dietitian' website. I scanned all questions and did not find any viruses. Thank you for contacting me immediately when you suspected a virus may be present. That will help us resolve it if it does become a problem. However, be confident that you have a higher level of technical knowledge than those on your list."
