[NHCOLL-L:527] RE: Virus warning about e-mail to this group

[Roberta Faul-Zeitler]

My version of this notice did NOT have an attachment ABOVE the title line.
Are you certain that when it was sent to NHCOLL members that it had an
attachment to it ?

Could others respond and indicate whether they have an attachment to this
NHCOLL announcement ?

Thanks. Quite concerned, Bobbie
