As ISP's come to grips with a new virus, some will replace the virus and send
the message on its way. I am getting about 25 of these a day. The attachment
will be replaced with something like:

This is a message from the DataPro E-Mail Virus Protection Service
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The original e-mail attachment "bjegq.exe"
was believed to be infected by a virus and has been replaced by this warning
message.

If you wish to receive a copy of the *infected* attachment, please
e-mail helpdesk and include the whole of this message
in your request. Alternatively, you can call them, with
the contents of this message to hand when you call.

At Fri Sep 26 13:54:52 2003 the virus scanner said:
bjegq.exe Found virus or variant New Worm !!!
Executable DOS/Windows programs are dangerous in email (bjegq.exe)

Note to Help Desk: Look on the MailScanner in
/var/spool/MailScanner/quarantine/20030926 (message h8QBpJ508327).
