Dear Colleagues: I am receiving large numbers of messages which appear to
be infected.
I have Eudora set to truncate all messages over 7k. Here is a part of such
a truncated message:
See the attached file for detailsContent-Type: application/octet-stream;
name="movie0045.pif"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename="movie0045.pif"
Most of them have an attached .pif file.
Whenever I have such a truncated message, it is filtered into a special
directory for examination. Eudora gives me the option of having it deleted
or downloaded on the next Mailread command.
I think this process has helped me keep free of viruses and/or
worms. Norton is not even called upon to deal with these issues.
Regards, BobC
