and never ever ever open an attachment.
save all attachments to a temp folder, then scan them prior to opening them.
if the attachment name is in the least bit odd looking, delete the message
immediately without opening it. be especially careful with attachments
ending in .exe or in .vbs - they're usually viruses.
