    "Someone" isn't using the list to send viruses, as I'm sure you are
    aware viruses infect a system then they scan for all the email
    addresses they can before shunting out copies of themselves to the
    masses.

    So this means that someone that has the address of the list on their
    system is infected. The proper thing to do would be to notify the person
    yourself (if it has that much of an effect on you).

    If any .exe or the like is hitting your box, the moderators of the list
    don't really care as they'd expect the people on this list to have an
    idea how to install or use the varying techniques for avoiding viruses
    including but not limited to, plain text only views of emails,
    antivirus, extension blocking and/or non-MS software.
