I find this hard to believe. This is exactly what happened with the Good
Times virus and everyone freaked out. Files sent via the 'net are not
executable, being that they are almost always converted to text when they
are sent(ie binhex, uuencode, etc.). The attached file would first have
to be saved to your harddrive, then converted to binary and then executed.
And have a nice day ;)
