Caveat on Melissa Macro Virus

[pcc () LLNL GOV (Phil Cox)]

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

All,

Just wanted to point out that most reports have been listing Outlook97
as a propogation mechanism for this, which is not correct. The only
mailers that the macro virus will invoke AUTOMATICALLY to propogate
this virus are Windows based Outlook98 & Outlook2000.
