Apologies that the virus got through - I am not infected (that was a Windows virus, and I use a Mac). Unfortunately the mailing list software is rather primitive and it authenticates senders based on their email address. Since these viruses randomly forge sender addresses, there is always a small chance that one will hit the right email address and the right mailing list. That is what happened here. It should be a very rare occurrence, but if it does happen again I will try to take measures to prevent it.
