It's the entire world...not just the lists.

Just delete them...do not open them.

Yes, I'm getting the same type of crap. emails from people i don't know
saying things like, "I have created the following attachment for your
review" etc etc. I also have NAV and it usually will pick up on a virus
even before I get to see the email...but these it did not respond to.
The file attachments had dual extensions...ie mypaper.doc.nvt or
something like that. I also simply DELETE the email without ever OPENING
the attachment...which is how yoou go about getting the virus. :-)

Strange how this list keeps getting infected????
