Has anyone received a blank email with an attachment entitled: GPGNAIGP.EXE ?I just got one from: cassandra.utanet.at IP: 195.70.224.60 If no-one knows what this is about I'll just delete it as I don't fancy sharing my system with any thing uninvited. Thanks, WBM IP: Logged |

Do you have a hotmail account? Because hotmail will scan all attatchmetns for viruses and will not let you open it if it contains one. If not, send it to me and I will let you know if it is safe to open.------------------ IP: Logged |

Hi Emma,Thanks for your advice but I am afraid I have already deleted it! I prefer not to use web-based email but if I start to receive a lot of junk through my forum email I'll think about using HotMail. BTW I never got a chance to say hi or congratulations on becoming a mod. Sorry it wasn't a pleasant transition.. Thanks again, WBM  IP: Logged |

Yeah congrats to you too mate. I would definately recommend a Hotmail account. There's quite a small limit to the space you're allowed to take up, but if you have another email account then it's not really a huge problem.------------------ IP: Logged |

I must admit that I have been getting quite a few emails telling me how to make my ***** bigger by up to 2 inches! Quite a hard job (no pun intended!) I should imagine as I don't even have one! But I just block the sender.------------------ IP: Logged |

My mailbox has unlimited storage. But it doesn't block viruses. Anyway I will just delete the things I don't seem to fancy a lot.------------------
