So far, I've gotten about five hundred of these emails. Today, I've received two or three every ten minutes. It's been very annoying, to say the least.
If you don't open the attachment, you should be all right. I don't remember where I read this, but the other nasty thing about this virus is it has a component that is set to detonate on October 16. There are lots of articles and I do believe Puffin has posted sites to go and read about this.
I have my email set to delete all attachments. No email program is safe from this thing. And, no matter what anti virus program you've got, make sure you update it.
