Well, my virus checker didn't spot it. Probably it needs to be updated.
I read the message, but did nothing about the attachment.
Then, after reading the warnings, I deleted that message alltogether.
Am I infected ? I used Mozilla to read the mail, so if the virus relies
on security exposures of Outlook, I should be safe.
Any advice based on direct experience on this ?
