About those from netvigator.com, I'd want to make a public apology
here......
Immediately after the "tical" bomb, I phoned one of my net friend to ask
if
there's any method to stop it, and he suggested to bring it down to it's
knees and then everybody can stop receiving mail. However vger seems to
be
so solid that my friend's attempt probably failed. Those messages of
size
2K are mostly from my friend's machine.

Once again, I'd want to say sorry to all those who are affected.......
