On Saturday, May 4, the FLEX mailing list received an e-mail generated
by the Klez worm.  There is no real chance of your machine having been
infected if you use Netscape messenger to read e-mail and if your virus
definitions are up to date.  

It appears that the machine that sent the worm (the infected machine) is
one that connects to the internet via a Verizon.net account, most likely
a home machine.  Please feel free to contact me if this sounds like it
may be your machine.  I'd be happy to work with you to disinfect it if
necessary.
