Hi! How are you?

I send you this file in order to have your advice

See you later. Thanks

Would you have guessed, the attachment was an all so convincing..."Rescued Document.doc.com" - 157kb

Well just for fun I decided to download it to my pc and scan it - the virus it contains is...

W32.Sircam.Worm@mm

So just warning you all - don't bother opening the attachment if you receive it Smile

...ugh...some people.....you'd think they'd realise that no-one is going to open a .com...well obviously some people do or viruses wouldn't spread!

I was kinda hoping for non-binary code so I could drag it into Notepad and take a look Smile
