You would have to be an idiot to respond to it. Is there anybdy out there who still opens files from an unidentified source? If I didn't fall for it the first time I got it, I probably won't the next 100 times. I'm not kidding, I have deleted that same stupid message at least 100 times. I'm reasonably sure the attachment is a virus. I'm also reasonably sure that I'm not the only one on their sucker list.

I don't open anything unless I know the person it is from. And I never accept attachments. Are there really people out there who do? If so they must be really new to the internet. A warning to all who have not learned: Don't open unknown attachments. That's all
