She is indeed attractive, Eduardo -- and that is an understatement.
I suspect that the virus was named for her to induce fans to open the
file attached to the e-mail. It was labeled Tiazinha.jpg.pif, and people
who know the name might be very curious about a .jpg file of her
arriving in their mail boxes. (Although the .pif at the end should make
one a bit cautions.)
Interesting that this thread has gotten a number of Brazilian members
who I believe have usually been pretty silent on the list to post
messages, though -- educating the ignorant North Americans who did not
know her name. Glad to see you here.
