Hi, about attachments, you can tell these are aimed at
the microsoft world. You can visually examine the
extension on the file and tell what it is, maybe.
In the microsoft world the last three characters in
the file name tell the OS how to handle the file. So
be carefull of any file with a name ending in,
.com //Program executable
.exe //Program executable
.pif //Program information File (will act
as an executable under certain
circumstances.
.bas //Binary or Text Basic file
.vba //Binary of Text Macro file for
Microsoft office (or any other
Microsoft product that uses
macros).
.ba[x] //Macro file specific to a package.
.dot //Microsoft Word document template
(really just one huge macro for MS
Word)
.doc //Microsoft word document can contain
macros including MS Word Macro
Viruses)
