I received this e-mail from the address listed below and all info attached. The Mcaffe virus protection alerted me of the virus attached titled " PWS Gen Hooker Virus" stating that there is NO cure for the attached virus and had a little "timebomb" attached alerting of the virus.
IF you receive this mail....DELETE IT IMMEDIATLY!!!!!!!!!

Sincerely,

Your friend,

TTD

We get emails similar to that sent to the page email address rhat contain .pif files. It is always safer to delete them than open them.

Thanks for the heads-up, TTD. I, for one, NEVER open attachments unless it's from someone I know AND I'm expecting it. If I'm unsure, I quaranteen the e-mail and check with them before doing anything else.
