85605 2002-10-02 23:42:00 Like most people I worry about e-mail viruses, no problems since I got Ihug to scan all my e-mail, Nortons did let a Worm Kletz through when it was very new, cost me time and money to fix. What I'm wondering is, if I instead of opening an e-mail right/click it and select properties, I can see a lot about who it is from and what is in the e-mail if I select details.
Can I pick up a virus this way?
At present Ihug is stopping a couple of viruses each week.

Play safe and delete any unsolicited attachments.
Never open unsolicited attachments with.scr or .pif extension even if you know the sender,
If you suspect it might be genuine email the sender and get confirmation they actually sent the email and ask them to confirm filename and contents.
