[CUBE] weirdo stuff in email replication going on/ help?

[Robert W. Bumala]

It's the worm that's out there infecting Wintel machines.  Somebody out 
there with a wintel has your address, is infected, and the worm is 
trying to infect your Mac.  Don't worry, it can't hurt you, it's just 
annoying.

Netscape can filter them out for you if you wish.
