The left side is just a mass of unidentifiable letters and numbers; the right is aol. The topic is one that I'm highly interested in. It has attachments. I have deleted all three to be on the safe side.
I am still going through my list of organizations that might have my address. So far, I've found zip.

Be weary of any emails with attachments unless you know who the sender is. If you're afraid to open it, then don't. If you don't know who sent it to you, then trash it.
Spammer and hackers work alike, they will try to create the most interesting topic for any user, whether it's a long lost friend, ex-lover, incredible sale of some hot new electronic, p3nis growth, free money, etc. They will try whatever it takes for you to open up a message for you to catch a glimpse of whatever site they are promoting or open their malicious attachment.
To be on the safe side, if you don't know the person, just trash it, you'll save yourself a lot of time.
If you're dying to know where it's from, switch to advanced/full header view and read the delivery route.

Hi there.
I get them all the time and just Delete them as soon as they come in.
I don't like them either and reported some of them in to yahoo.
They always come in the bulk mail and I put a block on them also so they can not send any more to me.
If I wanted any thing from off the internet, I would buy it,but I like to look at thing's I want, not what they want me to look at or buy,ya.
Just delete them to be sure ok.
Take care.
Sharon.
P.S. people get your e-mail address from forwarding thing's, so watch out for that alright.

You'll know from the sender and the title if it's a legitimate e-mail for you. If not, just delete it. I have one e-mail account that attracts about 50 of these messages every day. I just pick out the one or two that are genuine and delete the rest.

It is spam. Just delete it and do not waste any more time. Spam engines always come up with titles that are interesting to get you to open them. Just stay away from it, whatever they want to say is available anywhere else on the web, just search in Google the topics you are interested in, there will be plenty of sites to keep you busy that will not infect your computer.
