Hi,
   Today I got e-mail from "69.197.83.68" CANADA ISP which has
undetectable virus. Well I downloaded this file but I didn't run it
because I know it is virus.

It's undetectable, and yet you detected it.

Imagine that.

It's the W32/Mabutu.a@MM virus, and you really shouldn't make it available for download from the web.

You can complain to rogers.com if you want, but I doubt it will do any good.
