Re: NAV detected a virus in a document you authored

You might want to consider not sending messages like this out, especially
for viruses like the one found.  The virus your application indicates it
has found is known to spoof the sending address.  So, you can be
relatively certain if you got it, it didn't come from the address
indicated as the sender.  Thus, your notification is actually causing more
harm than good.  In this particular case, your notification was sent to a
mailing list with several hundred subscribers.  For more information about
the virus listed below, see the following site:
