got an email from a distro tday that I had contacted a month ago
I emailed him back to see what the .zip file he sent me was about and he kindly wrote back that it wasnt him that sent it and everyone on his address list had gotten the same and he told me not to open it
Well it was too late, I extracted the file and there was a .vbs file after extraction
I read his return email and quickly deleted the .zip and the .vbs isnt anywhere that I can see in my files
feeling Stupid can anybody relate or chime in here? thanks :/
