Be sure to check out the second link.
It has a picture of the email you were refering to.

You might want to run an antivirus program to make sure
you dont' have the worm already. Not sure what antivirus
program to recommend... the one I have didn't remove it
all the way... I'm doing it manually.

OH yeah...
I didnt' even run the file on the email..
apparently it ran itself somehow.
Sneaky booger.
So be sure to scan your puter for viruses...
There's an online virus checker on the same site as the
second link I posted.

Good luck and be safe out there.

((I actually ended up with 3 worms... wonder if they are
the cause of my Treeview probs I posted about the other
day))
