Curse those dangling anticedents!
Yes, the latest TIAZINHA virus does show up as an attachment.
The "the email" I referred to in the paragraph snipped above
was meant to refer to a different virus mentioned earlier in
the thread - one that hid itself inside a .signature block,
and thus presented a rather different appearance.
I don't think Eudora was vulnerable to that one, either - only
Outlook.
