Re: VIRUS ALERT !!! (no hoax)
WIll this infect your computer if you did not open it? I have recieved
it from about 15 people in the last week, unfortunately Bill, I recieved
it from you first! I never open any exe files, especially from people I
have never met. I believe, if unopened, it wont harm yuor system, just
delete it and then remove the trash from your email system.
