:lol:

I haven't got any, maybe beacuse none of my friends would send me screensaver, beacuse they don't have full-time access to the internet. (Poland...)
Just don't open them, block the ip and it should be alright (hovewer I'm a noob in this). They are messing with an ADMIN. Just ban them! :P

I have been getting tons of them. Funny thing though, I clicked on the file attached to it in hotmail, and they scan all there files with McAfee, and it said it was clean, no virus found, but I still didn't download it. Just add more people to the block list and update Norton :D

I NEVER USE THE HOTMAIL ACCOUNT FOR THIS REASON. just make sure you update your virus def&#39;s and you should be safe. never click on a file thats sent to you unless you know the reason of that file.

Now I&#39;m getting about 10 a day to my GM account. Norton catches everything as it comes in so there are no problems. I just have to delete the empty emails.
