Shit. I haven't actually used anything like that in
I fear that you cannot retrieve your mp3s etc. I had a similar experience

First of all I deleted Heiko's attachment without opening it and I do this
with any attachment I receive that I consider suspicious. The suspicious
part was the .jpg.vbs extension that the file had..no normal file would have
