Hi: On my oldest remaining email address, I receive recognizable spam most weekends. Less than an hour ago, I received a message purportedly from UPS saying that a package has been sent to me and will arrive in seven days. I wasn't expecting anything. It had a ZIP file attached. Norton Antivirus was on the message, and when I downloaded, it wouldn't let me see the file, only save or cancel. Being a bit stupid, I saved it, but don't know where it went. I trashed the message.
Turns out that the message was sent to variations of my email address and UPS says the email has a virus, that they never send ZIP files. Kubuntu had been trying to check my drives, so I turned it back on and it checked my drives, then I emptied the trash in that email account and cleared the list of downloads. I printed the document I've been working on, and something else that would be a pain to lose. Is there anything else I should do? Should I expect my 'puter to be useless in seven days? Ellen
