Hi Tom
I had an email from my ISP last night with a similar content (password number) to open zip file attachment, I hesitated and thought about it then phoned my provider On the first menu of the phone line there was a warning not to open these zip file's. Question is should we just delete them or Quarantine them in the Norton antivirus. |

Hi Mike,
Delete them without opening the attachment. |
