I'm sure we all sympathize. They come in all the time . . . often with message that doesn't quite make sense, and an executable attachment. If you see an attachment of type *.exe, *.bat, *.com, *.scr, you don't need a virus detector to tell you to avoid it like the plague. (You'll find a whole list of suspicious file extensions at http://antivirus.about.com/library/blext.htm) And make sure your system is set up to display the extension so that you don't get fooled by "foobar.jpg.exe" with the ".exe" invisible.
