Never ever open an attachment unless you know what it is. You're usually safe if it's an image like jpg, gif, or bmp.
Also be careful as many new viruses come as an e-mail claiming to protect you from viruses.
Also also many are just plain hoaxes, there are several sites to confirm if a virus or e-mail warning is just a hoax. Please don't forward these out until you check for sure it isn't. |

yup! please get antivirus apps to scan the email if you run outlook/outlook express or other virus prone email software! over the last week, I've estimated about 10 infected emails a day! |

Aaron Marks and I got e-mail from each other with one conceren. We never sent them.
I just got another e-mail from I guy who has a 355 who I know but have had no contacts with.(his e-mail had a virus) Norton caught it.
Another friend is on the corvette webpages. He got almost 50 e-mials over the weekend.
My advise, if you don't know them don't open them.
