BEWARE of any emails that you receive which include attachments. Unless you are expecting that attachment you should delete the eMail. With the latest virus BadtransB, as soon as you attempt to open the email or preview it, it displays an "Open Attachment Warning" box. No normal email will do this; it is a virus. Cancel the box DO NOT SAVE or OPEN the FILE. Delete the email immediately. Among other tricks, this virus looks for unread emails on infected computers and sends infected emails as a reply. This means that you might easily receive an infected eMail from a friend or colleague. The email subject will begin "Re:". In that case, the attached file name will be one of the following: PICS IMAGES README New_Napster_Site NEWS_DOC HAMSTER YOU_ARE_FAT!
