My NAV intercepted a W32 Bugbear virus in a email addressed to a list 
this morning.  As I recall it had an Elecraft-related address.  But I 
did not take a close look, just let it get quarantined.

It's about the 5th instance of this new virus I've seen this week.

I suspect it is like the Klez thing and masquerades its true source
