SCN: Re: Illegal attachment type found in message "file in the FreeHand "

[Brian High]

emailer1 at netzero.net,

You probably have the Magistr virus:

http://www.antivirus.com/vinfo/virusencyclo/default5.asp?VName=PE_MAGISTR.A


I know because I got this from you and I doubt you sent it on purpose ...
and it looks like Magistr emails I have seen before.

Update your Antivirus library and clean your system.  Thanks.

--Brian
