Yeah, lucky and careful are a good combination. BTW the article in Wired that's in this morning UT news (
http://www.wired.com/news/technology/0,1282,52174,00.html) mentions that the Klez e-mail worm fakes the 'from' line using an address randomly selected from the recipient's own address book. Which explains why the person who contacted me thought they got it from me when in fact it came from somewhere else.
BTW, thanks for the thoughtful and detailed response about SuSE, Mandrake and Lycoris last week. Wish I had time to play around with it, but since I don't at least I can learn something from reading about your experiences.
