To all:
When I opened the file from e-lab announcing the new ICs, I got a virus
alert from Norton. It called it a trojan horse, unrepairable file. It was
called "kak.hta". It was successfully quarantined and deleted. Someone
must be messing around with Todd's email.

Ray -
Indeed there are problems, and they are shutting down any future mailings
until
the problems get fixed. The SOURCE of the problem is NOT E-Labs (per se),
it is
the Embedded Design mailing list facility that they are using. I, for one,
AM subscribed to that journal, and I suspect that may be true of many
others who are
or may soon be experiencing these problems.
I will forward a copy of this message back to E-Labs for their files.
Regards,
Bruce

said the virus effects win98 with Outlet express 5, which I have. I think I
am OK, thanks to Norton, but if anyone runs this software, they better get
scanned for the virus.
Thanks,
