I have just had to wipe my hard disk, and rebuild my system, as it was

Just Dooon't open the attached file, it is leathal to your Hard Disk, and
can't be reversed once the Spider Web shows up on your screen (Usually
around a week from infection).
Neddless to say I have lost all my emails, especially the ones concerning
the Ricoh **10 camera Kit, Please can you forward those emails again.
