Exclamation

Here's an problem with emails. When a complete stranger uses your friends'/familys' email addresses to send viruses to your computer. Several months ago, my mom received what we thought was a legitimate email from a cousin of ours. It contains "files" to be downloaded. I foolishly downloaded the files and released a virus into the computer. It turned out that someone used his email to possibly infect our system. We had to use the system recovery disk several times to repair the damages before we had to junk it. My advise is to be careful when you open an email and downloading files. Delete spam! Also get an anti-virus software
