It doesn't contain an attachment, but a link to Paypal,that once pressed triggers the virus. <BR> Some people have way too much time on their hands.<BR> beware brian

Posted By: <b>runscott</b><p>I have received sporadic emails from fellow ebayers containing the text from an ebay "end of auction" notice, with a virus attached. This is different from the normal virus attachments I get in that it doesn't have the wacky "...I hope you would like it" msg within.<BR><BR>Bottom line - get virus protection software that scans all incoming mail for viruses and deletes the virus file. It's the only way to protect yourself. The folks at Semantic (sells Norton) are great about finding new virus types and updating their software.
