Don't be a victim, it was for real alright.  I caught it from this list.
You may be referring to the fact that the file had a .txt.shs extension &
only the .txt part is visible on some configurations of Windows.  On
launching the file notepad gets opened with the 'jokes', but the real file
(.shs) is doing its stuff behind the scenes.   If you want the low-down on
the virus check out

Uhmm... Maybe I missed something, but that was just a text file with a
couple jokes in it.  I didn't see any VBScript or anything else that
could possibly be a virus.

Did the list software filter something out or has the virus panic
attack finally taken hold?

You're infected by a virus which sent a mail with a .SHS file as an
attachment. This virus seems quite intrusive since it's a kind of
BackOrifice...

Please desinfect your computer ASAP !!!

This is a VBS worm, similiar to the "Love Bug" worm.  Amazing what the

windows/outlook user, but feel free to edit it your favorite text editor to
see what it does.

Thanks to the joys of Pine, uudecode, and vi, I've carefully viewed the
attachement undel Linux.

I wouldn't open it on a window box, or attempt to *EXECUTE* the thing,
'cause it screams macro-virus/trojan from the looks of things. I haven't
delved in to see exactly what it does, but it looks fairly unhappy.
