[Full-disclosure] Vunerability in yahoo webmail.

[wac]

Hi folks:
Can I get this file somewhere else? Like a web site or something. This gmail
thing detects it as a virus. I doub't yahoo will let it pass still, that's
wht i don;t ask anyne to send it to me ;). I wonder who asked to have an
stupid scanner in the e-mail that you can't disable. I don't even have one
on my computer!!! Anyway I understand I'm not common kind of people ;).
Thanx in advance.

Waldo
