Received two e-mails in the PDML without any subject matter, only
attachments. One was from a "Richard E. Graham", and the other from a
"Rusty". Since I recognized neither of these names from the PDML, I
definitely would not open either those stupid attachments, and immediately
deleted both messages. If you receive ANY "non-subject" mail from ANYONE,
(with only attachments), DO NOT OPEN THE ATTACHMENTS.  That is how this MTX
virus gets infiltrated.....

And even if there is a subject, it is always better to load any attachments
to disk before you even think about opening them. (Especially if you don't
recognize the senders...) That way your anti-virus program (assuming you
have one, and you really should) gets a chance to check it out on the disk
before you open it and execute it.
I've caught several viruses and trojans this way, my Innoculate It (a free
download by the way) anti-virus program detected them, warned me about them,
then deleted the entire *&@#$%* messages before their sick senders could
infect my system...

I know many of you know this already. This is for those who do not.
