Re: Ms Update Spoof - W32.gibe - NOTE:VIRUS ATACHED

Excerpt from list charter[1], "Posting Guidelines" section:

        "Attachments may be included if relevant or necessary
         (e.g. PGP or S/MIME signatures, proof-of-concept code,
         etc) but must not be active (in the case of a worm, for
         example) or malicious to the recipient" 

Even if this was not against charter, sending a large binary over thirty
times as large as the message to every recipient on a mailing list is just
silly. Put the file on a web or FTP site and post the URL.


[1] I'd usually give the URL, but since it's at the bottom of every
    single list message, I'd think most folks can find it.
