If you have the latest norton, you shouldn't be worried... you can just
delete the attachment from the message I believe.  At least I think TB!
can do that.  Another trick is if you have your email set to store
attachments separate from your emails (in a separate folder), you can just
go ahead, and delete the file.... It'll then be deleted from the email
itself.
