For a time on Thursday, the associate.com server was
extremely slow.  Here is a paragraph from Mr. Glen
Stewart's email to moderators that explains the
problem.

Please be sure that your anti-virus systems are up to
date.  We've had no complaints about problems
eminating from our faithandlife subscribers.  Lets
keep it that way.

Thank you.

the past few days 
    
A group of 10,000 members was hit by a virus and
bogged the server down for many hours each day, as the
virus sent email forged as coming from the 
group owner.

I've put a control in place to prevent the attachment
used by the virus from being passed to groups here,
and have reported the computer to its ISP and 
other spam/virus tracking entities.

While reviewing the group, I discovered that its
moderator had not kept his promise . . . .As a result,
that group was immediately deleted. . . .
