Today I received two back-to-back emails that are extractions from the
Conch-L archives dating back to 2001. Both have an attachment called
"backup Nov 10.reg.scr", which my antivirus software automatically
quarantined.

One email has Bill Frank's posting from early 2001:

the other is,

From:  <[log in to unmask]>
To:
Subject:  Frank Walker
Date:  Mon, 9 Jun 2003 09:03:28 -0700 (PDT)
Attachments:  backup Nov 10.reg.scr,Size: 98790 bytes.

The recipient line To: is blank, which leads me to believe that this maybe
a spam email sent to numerous folks in the shell world.  If you have
received anything like this, or similar, do not open it.  Just delete it.
The attachment is a virus.  I've not been able to ascertain which virus, as
it is cloaked with the attachment name.  As long as it was quarantined, it
is assumed to be harmful to computers.

Just a heads-up.

Hello All
Here are two links that might help;  <A HREF="http://capair.com/">Capital
Aeroporter Home Page</A> ;  <A HREF="http://www.piercetransit.org/">Pierce
Transit for WA</A> The first link, $40 round trip from airport to hotel.
Second
link, route 60 goes past hotel and post office (to mail shell goodies).
