the snow white virus has been coming from one or more listmembers for
several months.  I have received it (but never opened it) numerous times.
it is a self-replicating virus (worm actually)that attaches itself to the
infected computer address book and sends itself out to those listed there
without the owner's knowledge.

how do I deal with it?  under the message heading, when the offending
message is highlighted, but not opened, I choose block sender.  that
operation will then automatically send all future messages sent by sexyfun
(in the case of show white) or whoever immediately to the delete file.  that
way I never even see them and can never open them by mistake.  I also run a
virus program on a regular basis.

my understanding is that it is not a destructive virus, but merely a
self-replicating worm.  disturbing, but not destructive.

good luck.
