Suspicious Email Attachments

A good rule of thumb for email attachments; never open an attachment from an unsolicited email. Such attachments are almost invariably viruses. Even if you recognize the email address where the email originated, check with the sender first if you receive unusual or unexpected email. It's possible that a virus has infected the sender's system and is trying to replicate itself.
