Nope, because it's part of an massive sporgery attack on sci.crypt.
The attacker has decided that in order to amplify his tens of
thousands of messages to sci.crypt, he will cross-post to random
other newsgroups, and thus cause thousands of replies such as yours.
Please resist the temptation of replying to these kinds of messages,
as it only harms the victim of the original attack even more. If you
can filter messages cross-posted to sci.crypt please do so, as I'm
sure these attacks will continue.
Thanks,
Phil Carmody, reader of sci.crypt
