My Worry here is that the senders name maybe a name familiar to me - even if limited. If the system sends an E-mail to your address list, without your knowledge, with yours name and address on the mailing.
The reciever, gets an invitation from your infected computer through your E-mail system: When opened "They become infected". They may be dormant for sometime or awaiting a special occassion to activate.
This is a nightmare I hope does not occur: Just a personal fear of mine. Just thinking that it is not far fetch to think it could happen. For this reason, I do not open up CARDS - PROGRAMS - Or anything until I have spoken (communicated with the sender) and know what to expect.
The sender can INTENTIONALLY Infect my computer: But at lease I know who and how.
