Hmm, been getting many sick virus mail lately.
Seriously, what will you do if you got a mail which contained virus from Yahoo or any other web mail provider? Do you click on the mail, see what's being written and open the attachment as told?
If you have a good anti virus installed on your pc, at least you are protected from computer viruses (like trojan horse, worm, virus). If you do not have an anti virus installed, you can get a fully functional free anti virus here. Of course there are other good anti virus out there, such as Norton, Mc Afee, Trend Micro, Sophos, etc. Having a good anti virus installed is not enough. You will also need to ensure that, the anti virus (be it AVG, Norton, Mc Afee, Trend Micro, etc) is constantly being updated with the latest pattern file or updates. It has been reported that, as many as ten computer viruses are being detected daily. That explains why you should update your anti virus software daily.
Many say that, computer viruses are created by anti virus company themselves. Sales strategy! College students who want to test their skills, develop and email the computer virus to their friends and their friends in turn email it to others. Email seems to be a great medium for computer virus to spread.
