It is a badly designed attempt to do a forced download and execution of
the file CryptoSMS.EXE on your computer. There is some question whether
it is malware or simply a spam attack. Either way any reasonably secure
computer shouldn't have a problem with it but there are still millions
of people out there who never hear of the word security and they are the
prime target. Do a Google search for the filename and you'll get many
hits but there seems to be little agreement about what is going on.

It appears the OP never made it through the Supernews filters, since I
never saw it. Thanks for the info and thanks Supernews for the filters.
