Thanks for the tip. I will check that out tomorrow when I get back in the office.
I ran across a message the other day about a virus that instructs you to save the attachment as an "executable," instead of the current file extension. The malware writer actually went to the length of providing instructions to the end user as to how to accomplish this. Once the extension is saved as an "exe," the author instructs the user to "double click on the file" to see what happens. A new kind of social engineering virus...preying on the less skilled computer user.
