Dave and list,
  Road Runner prevented me from getting it but no big deal for me, I run
Linux here anyway.  

Here's what I got from RR:


ALERT!!!
Road Runner is currently dropping all .com, .exe and .pif files in order
to prevent negative affects from the Zafi.B/W32.Erkez.B at mm virus on our
network and subscribers, and to help keep the virus from circulating
around the Internet.   If you need to send or receive these files types,
please make sure that the file is sent as a .zip or .gzip compressed
file.  Road Runner will resume accepting .com, .exe and .pif file
extensions as soon as possible.

The following attachments were infected and have been repaired:

Removal tools (to clean your computer) can be located at:

Thought I'd pass along the info for everyone just in case. 

Regards,
