>> I have added some rudimentary scanning for possibly hostile macros in
>> Microsoft Word and Excel attachments to my Procmail-based email
>> sanitizer. This scanning is for code fragments that do things that
>> shouldn't be in document macros rather than any particular variant of
>> an existing virus or worm, so it should be generally effective.
>>
>> I'd like to have some third-party comment and beta testing before I
>> release it. Anyone interested should send me some email at
>> <jhardin@???> and I'll send the html-trap.procmail filter
>> with the added attachment scanning code.

>> I hope to publicly release this modification tomorrow or Friday.
