I have been sent an e-mail telling me to "run the attached
file" to upgrade security, but no file is attached.

How do I get this file?

Any ideas.

Thanks
 
It is/was a virus. You don't want to get this file. Microsoft does not

Dear Paul,

I have just opened this file and my e-mail's are going
crazy. just received 59 e-mails notifying me of
undelivered e-mails.

How do I get rid of it?

I would be very careful. I have been getting many of
these messages over the past 24 hours which I do not
believe are coming from Microsoft but they are clogging up
my In Tray. I hope Microsoft are aware.

I suspect you have picked up the SWEN worm purporting to
come from Microsoft. Suggest look it up on your anti
virus.
