is it true that if you recieve an e-mail from someone you don`t know or haven`t got a clue what it`s about, then it`s better not to open it ?
recieved two today from the same person, the e-mails require me to open links that are on them
expert opinion required

If you don't know who they are, and they ask you to open a file, or click on a link, then
DON'T DO IT.................
Just delete the e-mail .
Better safe than sorry.
Takes a while to rebuild the files on your computer.
I'm talking from experience here.

You can also configure outlook ( or your mail server) to block any further e-mails from that address.

John Kettley is a weatherman, a weatherman, a weatherman. John Kettley is a weatherman, and so is Michael Fish.
It's maybe the weather forecast for the kingdom of Croy

Definately delete any unknown emails - especially with attachments.
Do these emails have same/similar Subjects ?
Also set up message rules to delete emails with those words.
Usually things like "check this out" or "pics" etc etc.
See other thread and some of suggestions there.

Mick - most virus checkers can establish whether or not your email is "dodgy" (the board's fave word today!) just make sure you keep updating your software and you'll be fine.
But, deleting it straight away ain't the right thing to do - it could be important!
