Have other members of this list suddenly been besieged in the last 2-3 days
with junk?  I keep getting emails with a subject line "RE: details" and they
all simply say "Please see the attached file for details."  All the files
have a .pif extension (what is that?).  They're all from seemingly
legitimate addresses, but no one I actually know.

At least one of the addresses it came from was a legitimate display company,
which is why I wondered if any of you were getting them too.

Obviously, I haven't opened any of the attachments, but I have no idea where
this flood originated.  I'm on a Macintosh, so it's not part of the Windows
virus brigade, I presume.

Any clues?
