Email from jpwaters@gmail.com don't open

I found an email today from "jpwaters@gmail.com
RE: RE: Hello" I thought the name sounded familiar so I went to open it. Because I use hotmail it was automatically scanned and was said to contain the worm virus for which there is no cure. it contained an attachment called website.zip.

Thanks for the heads up!

I seriously doubt that this came out of Joe's computer, but instead came from another infected compter that also has Joe's email address. The best rule is just use a good virus scanner and don't open any attachments without first scanning them.

I didn't mean to imply that it came from his computer or that he is in any way involved in this. I get these all the time they put in different names to make you think it's someone you know. From Mom and Dad cousin Larry. Mostly I don't look at them, this one I looked at because I thought the name sounded familiar at 6:30 this morning.
