Got it myself a few days ago but Im a bit long in the tooth to open anything suspicious with attatchments. Saved the attatchment and scanned it. Sure enough it was a virus. The message that came with it was something to do about terrorists or something.

i wonder why still so much ppl open mails und save attachment from ppl which they dont know.

I always delete every email i dont know...i get lots of attachment mails and offers from girls to visit there website and all such crap.
I ban this email and delete it.

Do the same and you should never have any problems.

Cheers Angel !

Speccy, DA........

The mail didnt even get into my in box......The mail virus scanner picked it up and shut down my mail.......

Everytime i opened my mail it was still there,in recieving mail!!!!and when it got to about 3% ,again, it would shut down the mail, hence no other mail could be recieved.......

I ran the cleaner and it found the virus in the system volume file.

The thing is that i dont understand is, how is the virus on my pc when i didnt even open the e-mail?.......strange.............
