I received a new infected oon from another family member yesterday. Still references YAHOO.
This posting was deferred by the site software: "Your post has been changed because invalid HTML was found in the message body. The invalid HTML has been removed. Please review the message and submit the message when you are satisfied."
I presume the infected HTML I cut and pasted for the engineers to review is what was removed. e-mail me if you want these e-mails forwarded to an engineer for examination.
