I just got an email from someone I don't know, subject line "Hello" and an attachment that said something about "The attachment has a binary code" and something or other. I deleted it without opening it...

There was a zipped file attached. That's all I know, I didn't open it.

YES, that's a spam-worm. I've had two already this morning. It's the latest worm, too. You should be ok though.

This latest one spoofs the sender, subject line and the attached file name changes.... it is a time to be careful!

Is everyone's virus checker updated?

Someone you know has gotten whacked by one of the nasties floating around now ...

My poor virus protection program has been going nutz these last few days. I've been getting updates every other day.
