i get the attachment a few times a day masked as a screen saver. luckily i use webmail, which scans everything already.

my local mail client is the opera browser. i never, never, never, never open attachments without a scan...and never, never, never, never from an unknown source. i wouldn't use outlook if i had a choice...and given no choice, i would immediately turn off all the automatic crap on there. automatic crap is pure evil folks. if i want something executed on the local drive, i'll do it myself...thanks.

I have Outlook. I'm on several mass mailing lists for my college classes each of which have like 500+ people...ya we've been getting these e-mails sent to the list several times a day. Luckily NAV always quarantines it. I ran the removal tool today on all my computer on my network just in case. Came out clean, guess NAV is doing its job.
