Either someone farmed this board for e-mail addresses and is sending screensavers to everyone who is then forwarding them to everyone else or there is a serious scrouge running loose on the net. My Hotmail account was loaded with various screensaver attachements from people both known and unknown to me. Since they kind of look suspicious, I'm not going to open them and risk my system just to find out whether or not they are what they claim to be ("free screensavers") or viruses. It's up to you to check your system and from the looks of things, it might be advisable that quite a few of you do so. Like I said, I don't know if this actually is a virus, but it sure looks like one.
Just thought some of you would appreciate the warning.
