[sharechat] Important - Telecom Xtra Jetstart customers please read this

Hi all

Many of the virus/worm files flying around to members on the Sharechat 
list appear to originate from a Telecom Xtra Jetstart customer who has 
an IP address of 219.88.80.55 (219-88-80-55.jetstart.xtra.co.nz). It 
might be that the PC concerned is using an archive of the Sharechat 
list (a folder in Microsoft Outlook probably) as a source for email 
addresses to both spread the virus/worm and as fake "reply-to" headers.

This person may be on the Sharechat list, so if you/they are out there, 
please get in touch with me or the list admin off-list. So if you are a 
Telecom Xtra Jetstart customer, myself and quite a few others affected 
would be grateful if you would check your IP number to see if it 
matches.

If you don't know how to check your IP, you can find out by visiting:

Robin
