Hi Web,

I've received several in the past couple of days. I suspect it is one of 
the new virus infections being reported. They came with hidden executable 
attachments that the PIF files would try to run if the recipient is foolish 
enough to click on them. Unfortunately, judging by their frequency, there 
are lots of fools willing to help spread them.
