Hi,
I use Eudora and it has "Attach" folder full of infected files.
I'm sure about it because two days ago it was empty, before bombing
from Swen worm.
But I have checked that folder with updated AVG antivirus and I have
just done an online scan with PC-cillin.
Can I manually delete those files?
Thanks

bye Fogar
 
I did it some days ago, now I am afraid!
What can I do now if I don't like to see those infected files
in"Attach" folder?
Thanks

Did your mother drop you on your head when you were a baby? What part
of delete them do you not understand. Tell you what, just open all of
them.

Your going to keep on getting them, as long as its around. AV can warn you
off them but not stop them arriving. Just periodically delete them without
opening them and you will be fine.

Yes. You want to delete mail file attachments that are malicious. That's ok
to do ;).

Fogar, you need to calm down. Stop drinking that strong Italian Espresso and
smoking those putrid Italian cigarettes. Don't be afraid. Your attach folder
will continue to fill up with malicious files as long as you continue to
receive them.
