This has been discussed in the alt.spam thread "Can someone help?" posted 5/27/2000. It is nasty SPAM, but so far there aren't any known viruses. If you use Outlook you can avoid having it launch the HTML windows by turning off the "Preview Pane" under the "View" menu before clicking on the email to delete it. Please, no more cross-posting. ka "rb" <2> wrote in message news:3938fa4c$0$8438$7f31c96c@news01.syd.optusnet.com.au... > i just got some email from "wahaha123" and i clicked it, outlook previewd it > and it popped a window up which i promptly closed. > > i got this email on my other system and a few weeks later the hdd > crashed(warranty replacement job). > > Is this a virus? should i be worried? > With all the outlook virus's floating around im a bit worried > > please reply via email, i dont follow this group > thank you > > Robert Stephenson > > robstephenson@iname.com > > >
