[Scan-DC] Spam From Yahoo

[Shawn]

Bill,
The Red Cross spam could have come from Yahoo.  To you and everyone on
the list, Yahoo changed their membership policies a couple of months ago
and reset everybody's prefacers to receive all of their spam email.
If you want to change it, go to this link:
http://edit.yahoo.com/config/eval_profile?.scrumb=vBtsGgoJDqS
login, the click on what you want and don't want.
Good luck,
-Shawn
P.S.  And echoing Craig's comments, I do think you may have a virus.
