just to let you guys know,
i have been receiving e-mails that have compressed
files attached and have text stating - "i send you
this file to have your advice".
i get the same file every day many times a day from
different e-mail adresses!! so blocking ID won't do
anything!! (this is on my sympatico.ca account which i
never get junk mail on)

be aware and alert!! don't open anything that you
receive from strangers!.
