I just received an email with following message:
"Symantec AntiVirus found a virus in an attachment you (my email address) sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
To ensure the recipient(s) are able to use the files you sent, perform a virus scan on your computer, clean any infected files, then resend this attachment.
Attachment: thank_you.pif Virus name: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Action taken: Quarantine succeeded : File status: Infected "
It also has an attached file named: winmail42.dat (I didn't open it yet)
The tricky thing here is that I have never sent such an email to anyone including the sender/recipient: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
So, what is this? what's going on? Was my computer infected by the virus mentioned? I have AVG running and checking my machine (WinME) every day and upgrading virus definition every 3 days. Anyone has any idea what should or should not do about this? Thanks
