I got an email from Ltlcleo with an attachment today. Subject reads "Notification".

I am hesitant to open it as I am concerned it may be a virus forwarding itself. I don't remember any e-mails from Ltlcleo before, but I don't want to delete it if it is legitimate.

So I am inquiring......have any of you heard from Ltlcleo recently?

Any info greatfully received. Thanks.

Fun5,

Odds are very high that it is not from Ltlcleo, at all.

The virus's today go searching through the E-mail address books on any infected computer, inserting assorted names in the "From" box, hoping someone will trust it and open the file.

Don't you have anti-virus protection? (aka computer condom?)

Here is the one I run...low cost and one of the best out there. Updates are daily, and it has never once let me down in over 3 years.

As to the file you have, I would not open it until I verified the sender. Send Ltlcleo an e-mail asking about it, to be sure.

My 2 cents..

If you get through to ltl, say hi from the rest of the gang.

Little Cleo was sighted recentley on one of the OP rivers. Two of my buddies ran into him on the river and had a nice conversation with him. I understand he broke things off with his best gal and she took the computer with her, so he hasn't had access to the internet.

Hey guys

The last time I saw Ltlcleo he was huntin' beaver and fishing for bass on a lake in Mason Co. (a couple days ago) I do know that he is not doing the computer thing right now especially not sending E-mails that have subjects of notification. My wife (she's the computer geek) says it sounds like a computer virus or spam. Most likely I will be tossin' back a few cold ones with him tomorrow and will let him know that he is back on the board.

Dudes,

Tell him I'm sorry to hear about his lady, but does he still have the Suub?

Try opening it at the library. Or you inlaws' house, buddy's, neighbor's, etc.

Fogged In, I tried to get in touch with you last night on your cell re: your phone message. Hope your relative is feeling better. Maybe we can hook up before I head out.
F5A, what I do is save all attachments to a folder on a non system partition, then scan with Norton before opening. Having said that, Fogged In has a good point and this e-mail is highly suspect and should only be opened on a computer belonging to someone you aren't particularly fond of.
