All:
Just thought I should give you all a heads up about this
little bug. Using AVG, I found I had three instances of
this virus on my system. Good news is, because I am using
Sun's Java instead of Microsofts Java as my default, I am
pretty much in the clear. Basically I just need to clear
the cache in Java and I should be set.
Given this is a Java based bug, I advise everyone to check
for it and to clear their Java cache regardless. Here's
the URL about the bug:

This is just another reason to move to something other
than Windows.
