yeah I know what you mean, I had the same thing but I saw that there was an exe extension and knew that it wouold be a virus. Your friend didn\'t send it, he was virused and the virus is passed on by MSM

Guess what happende to me last week.I  was chatting with a friend , And he tried to send me this exe file with a weird name. Anyway, I notices that he was replying constantly with the ;) smile to whatever I said, then I notices that on the bottom of the window it didn\'t show the email of my friend but "GeorgeW.Bush@whitehouse.gov" I realized that his computer was virussed and that the virus was sendindig the ;)s,
I luckily deleted that exe file he sent me. I warned him the next day and he got rid of the nasty thing

Weird stuff these people make these days

I had a virus in college that was given to me by a friend as well.  It didn\'t do anything to my computer, but it made my penis burn when I left a piss.

I received the exact same virus from somone over MSN a few weeks ago.  Fortunately, Norton picked it up right away, so it didn\'t do any damage.

I\'m working on that.  I\'m hoping to get it out on the market before the X-Box.
