Do not open jokes, games, pictures, or anything else without receiving verification from the sender that the attachment was sent intentionally and is safe to open.

The new viruses are unusually deceptive to trick you into activating them. They may come disguised as almost anything, including invoices for products you did not buy or even patches to protect against computer viruses. On our network, virus protection updates will never come as an attachment sent by e-mail.

If you have any questions, please contact me as soon as possible.
