Someone sent me a window's virus directly to my ethereal mail address. 
I have only used this email address for ethereal related activites
(posting to etheral-dev, and listing in files I modified.

Today I received a virus via email.  Here are the interesting portions
of the header:

I tend not to run windows, so this didn't cause me grief.
