I got 2 email messages today that looked like they were from Sybrand and they contained the Klenz virus. My anti-virus software stopped them. The email headers are forged and they were NOT from Sybrand. Here is a copy of the email header:

You can see it came from 211.154.134.140 which is some jerk in China who is either the spammer or has an open relay email. Do NOT open any email that looks to be from Sybrand that has a subject of re:welcome to my hometown. Below is the whois on the China ip address. Jim
