I was told by my cousin whos into IT that once those kinda emails go into your inbox it gets inbeded in your system and you dont even have to click on the email for them to retreave your details

Depends on two things 1) the preview panel and 2) if your mail client automatically runs any attached scripts or not. if you have any doubts, disable the preview panel and delete anything you think is shonky. That'll minimise the chance for any auto scripts to be activated. As to the auto running of scripts, not sure, yould have to check on the net for your current mail client.

Preview Panel is disabled on every PC I've ever put out.....what a stupid fucken microdick idea that was (and still is)
And another thing while I'm here......if you get a joke sms about Michael Jackson or whatever current event....
Don't forward it.........the telco's are making an obscene fortune every time and are probably the instigators of the original jokes.
I might buy some shares and then start a sms chain myself

Computers in general-i am not a guru
My techi. advised me not to pemanently enable my system restore as some viruses can attach themselves to files links etc.
and lay dorment until a system restore point is activated and bang, the little bastards set to work.

Glad to read everyone bitten is getting reimbursed.
