Ouch... I'd be kicking a developer or two if that kind of thing
happened to me. No... you don't have to worry. What is happening is TB
grabs the mail into a temp file, each mail gets its own temp file.
Then that temp file is imported into the mail base
(foldername/messages.tbb). What you're seeing is your virus scanner
checks the file as it is created, and sees the iframe flaw, and locks
the file up so nobody can read it. When this happens, TB drops the
message from download, and moves onto the next. Because it couldn't
read the temp file, it doesn't attempt to delete it from the server,
hence the reason you see it on the server, and you have a temp file on
your system. Deleting that temp file won't cause you any harm once :)
