Greetings all,
the message with the subject
"my pretty floor won't pour before I expect it"
sent from "Lisette Crittendon" will continually open
netscape dialog boxes with the message
" HardDrive Reformatting "
"quick pull the plug, you might save something"
Of course, this doesn't format your harddrive, but it
will open windows til your system dies, perhaps necessitating
an annoying reboot. I was able to kill my netscapes before that happened
(whew!).
I was using Netscape 6 on Rehat Linux reading this newsgroup.
The windows started poping up merely upon viewing it.
Here is the header from the message:
(it seems to call fllwu.html recursively)
Cheers,
bob
