That's a WORM virus. They come in with the address of people we know. Be careful not to open any file attachments you aren't absolutely certain of.

If anyone needs a free anti-virus program; goto; www.cai.com/antivirus/ to download INOCULATE. You have to fill out a form, but it is a good program, and it's working for me.
