They're all hoaxes. We've had several sent to Eurodisc now (Remember Good Times?), and I'm sure it's only time before someone sends one to Britdisc. They only scare off naive users and bore people who've had hundreds of these emails kindly forwarded by concerned friends. You CAN get infected by running programs or examining documents sent as attachments but you CANNOT get viruses from reading the content of those mails - the protocol used is secure.

If anyone requires further assistance, takes issue with these comments, plays for the Airbreakers and knows why my team hasn't received confirmation of our entry yet, needs some software development or consultancy doing, or knows the subject and wants a job in London - contact me at this email address or through my company's web site at http://www.kbw.co.uk.
