Re: Virus in "Training vs. Education?" report?



No Cynthia
you didn't send a virus through rather someone's email filter is wound a
little too tight. Some email filters will reject messages where in the word
's*x' appears within a word such as say 'Suss*x' or the filter picks up on
the word 'virus'. Internet filters are another hazard a friend of my works
at a state agency. This friend tried to access the Society of American
Archivist website. The agency denied access to site. After looking at it the
only thing I could determine that might cause the rejection is the use of
the phrase 'hot topics' with the filter keying on 'hot'.

I have received this particular message several times from the same source
when I post the RAIN.

Uh oh, did I just send everyone a nasty surprise?  I didn't attach a
file so I am not sure how I could be propagating a virus.

Please let me know if you experience anything iffy, and I'll scan my
machine post-haste.

Deepest apologies,
