Well, I just recommend that you get Norton Antivirus 2001, I got emails like that too, I had just reliezed that I had a very, very, very, deadly virus on it. Just get Norton, you can quarinitine those Fu****** and send them to symantic.------------------ http://www.geocities.com/hicho15/Lpage.html IP: Logged |

You're hotmail account will automatically scan any attatchments for viruses. If any are found then it will tell you and therefor stop you from opening any contaminated files. I know this because I recieved an email on my outlook express account and needed to check if it contanied a virus before downloding the attatchment, so I sent it to my hotmail account and low and behold it did.

If you get Norton Antivirus 2001, it automatically updates itself with new virus definitions when you're online without interupring the work that you're doing.------------------ http://www.geocities.com/hicho15/Lpage.html IP: Logged |

The best thing to do if you haven't got Anti Virus software, is don't open attachments from peolpe you don't know, just delete them right away. If someone you know sends you an email with an attachment, check with them first before opening it.
