Viruses?
(Seriously, watch out for any .pif, .vbs, .exe extensions that you're not
sure of.)

Fun.pif?

Well, I' received five copies of it under five different names:
YOU_ARE_FAT!.TXT.pif
Card.pif
README.TXT.pif
NEW_Napster_Site.DOC.pif
Me_nude.AVI.pif

I thought the last one might be interesting...

If the virus hackers wished to create havoc in our group, they should have
it send attachments like:

NEW_YORK_PENN_METEORITE_FOUND.JPG.pif

I guess we're just not a large enough community to receive that kind of
attention (thankfully).
