Got this in my email, the file size is 465kb. I'm not sure whether it's supposed to be one of those viruses that everyone is bantering about, it's just kind of odd....

...and the code carries on like that. When viewing the email, I can't see the code, but viewing the source through Outlook Express, the code is there. The file does not have any attatchments.

If this IS one of those new virus email thingies and I've missed it in the other threads, then please forgive my ignorance. Otherwise... what the hell is this?

That might be a virus thingy... it can happen i got my nice virus still. =o)

I CANT GET RID OF IT.. unless i remove everything off that HD.

It looks more like a graphic that didn't show up right. We have one email acct set to no html mode and graphics show up that way in it.

What virus is it Watcher?

Interesting point, but do spammers normally include 450kb file attatchments? This is strange. Maybe I'll have to mail them back... not that I'm expecting a response.

Like I said, the code didn't show up until I clicked on message source. I do have Outlook set to "no html" though...
