Greetings,

    Some of you have asked if coral-list is responsible for helping to
spread the recent  W32/Netsky.B virus.  Actually, the @noaa.gov suffix
is part of the spoofed "From:" address on  some emailed viruses, but
that is because the virus gets this type of information from the users'
email address book.  For a complete description, please see

    Coral-list is not an agent of the spread of this virus, and we hope
it won't be.

    Cheers,
    Jim
