What a virus e-mail looks like

**Seedler** · 07-22-2006, 02:50 AM

Just got that in my mail, do I dare to open the zip?

I won't get infected as long as I don't click on the exe in the zip file right?

Is it safe to download the zip?

I get that exact mail in the filesharingtalk email address about twice a day.

Also get a LOT of them with attachments saying to open it for whatever reason...

Have you done it yet? I'll probably download it on my school comp and see what it is

I got that one too, but the attachment was screwed up.

I've had it as well, not opened it though. Somebody should do it and see what it contains so I don't have to.

What's really annoying is that no-one's replied yet.

I get that one a lot too. Anyone else see a pattern?

Cue conspiracy theories. We haven't had one in a while.
