at the very least, LOOK at the attachments.  if it's an exe file,
i agree with marc, blow it out of the water.  i think that the
habit of sending exe files wrapped around images, sounds, etc, is
an affrontery to platform independence, standards, and generally a disgrace
to the computer industry.  if it's a jpg or gif it should (i think)
be safe.  with doc and xls, use staroffice to read them.
