Thanks for the reminder. I doubt that these spams came through this group, though. This group itself is very well-filtered. You are correct. In general, one should not open any executable file sent by e-mail unless it is one that has already been arranged to send by that medium. Beyond that, this is OT for this group. How are your Perl studies going? What kind of projects or exercises are you taking on? It is an interesting group to read, and sometimes to post to. There is lots of help available here, though folks will expect you to do your own homework also. If you are more experienced, and have expertise to offer, there are also many who can use your insights. Stick around.
