Earlier today, I emailed a person on kijiji (good Canadian classifieds site) about a TV they had for sale. In my email, I asked if they had a picture of the TV. When the lady replied back, she said she didn't know how to add attachments. However, there were two attachments in the email. I didn't open the attachments, and I deleted the email. I am worried that it may have been a virus that attached itself, and that I might have it now. I emailed the lady again to see if she tried to send attachments but have not received a reply yet. So far I have ran AVG, Spybot and Ad-aware, and none of them found anything. I also sent a few test emails to friends, and one was normal size (2kb) with no attachements, the other one also had no attachments but she said it didn't say the size. She says sometimes hers doesn't. I don't know if they really don't or if she just doesn't know what she is doing. Anyway, I guess my question is, has anyone heard of any new hotmail viruses out lately that attach themselves?
Edited to add: I also sent an email to myself which was clean, and then sent one with an attachment to myself, and when I downloaded the attachment it was also clean.
