Phil,
It's not a virus but a problem with the way the email was sent in the
first place. It only occurs with senders who use Outlook and who have
their Outlook set in certain ways.
The sort answer is that winmail.dat contains formatting information. My
guess is that you aren't using Outlook and therefore the formatting
options came in what is probably an unreadable winmail.dat file for you.
For more, google winmail.dat, but here's a good summary.

I understand attachements are not allowed
Are they sent in error or are they viruses?
