Dear spectroscopy-group members,
please disregard Dr. I.Mukhopadhyay virus warning (copied below).
The virus that is described is a hoax, as determined by DOE's CIAC
(Computer Incident Advisory Capability) on their website:
http://ciac.llnl.gov/ciac/CIACHoaxes.html#holiday
Please do not forward that message, as this is the equivalent of a
chain letter. For information on what to do if you receive such a
warning in the future see: http://ciac.llnl.gov/ciac/CIACHoaxes.html#valid
Sincerely,
Eloy R. Wouters
