I hear your grief; as webi-owner I'm getting about 40 reports for each of=20
the viruses that's been posted here in the last few days.  (I doubt the=20
problem is wrec, since Keith has pretty good controls on that system.)

I can't offer any quick fixes[*] since I'm no longer in a position to sit=20
in the cube of the person that runs the list software, and unfortunately=20
I'm personally going to be unreachable for the next few days.

[*] One option might be to temporarily suspend the list
