The Mongrel Mind message has a virus, the "alt-config virus", it says
here...what's happened and how do I clear it up, please?

Not sure it actually has a virus, or if it's just a script telling you
that it has, NAV didn't actually go off here......

I've seen it before, I believe it is simply a script embedded to run. If you
right click the message , click on properties, then view message source, you
will see it in there.
