FS,

You need to be cautiuos even with mail from people you know. Many of the virus's out will grab your address from someone's address book and send the mail from that person. You recieve it from a trusted source so you think its ok but its not. Sounds like you have virus protection so you should be ok. Alot of folks out there don't have it or don't update the thing (new virus pattern's come out every week or better). If you don't keep it up to date you may as well shut it off.

As a rule, never open any thing you were not expecting, even if its from your mother!!

hope this helps.
