It's a matterof Symantecs :-) (pun intended).
I am well aware, having received a number of these that they all come
"direct", but it is evident from the messages that PIClist members (amongst
others) are involved and there is a very substantial chance of cross
pollination due to the potentially large shared address list.

WOULD ALL LIST MEMBERS PLEASE RUN THE DETECTION/REMOVAL TOOL THAT DENNIS HAS
IDENTIFIED.

IF EVERYONE DID THIS THEN THE LIST RELATED PART OF THE PROBLEM WOULD VANISH.
