Unless it's possible that your ISP (Internet Service Provider, for those of you who may question) has a virus detector on it?  Mine does, but they send me an e-mail.  They quarantine potential viruses and send me a link where I can safely view the potential virus.  Then I have a choice of deleting or having it sent to me.  It may be possible that your ISP does much the same, but do not notify you.  They are keeping you from having to worry about viruses, along with all the stresses of life you already have.
 
I also get similar notices about "Potential Junk Mail" ie, spam, but it isn't always effective.  Some spam comes in as "opt-in" something.  My ISP sees that and think I signed up to receive something, even though I didn't and my e-mail address was probably sold or otherwise shared from another company before I was smart enough not to click on links in certain types of e-mail.

I have not received a one. So this means that my e-mail address was not in Russ's address book. And the virus is not being transmitted to Rangernet.

But from where should the spam mailer know that RangerNet would accept mails
from his address, while it does not accept messages from addresses which are
not members of this list? Must be someone from RangerNet though.
