E-mail attachments are also another attractive method for distribution of Ads by Advertise that hackers just love to use! Please remember never to download and run any files on your computer without first confirming they are safe, especially if the email is received from an unfamiliar sender. Most anti-virus programs can be set up to scan files after download finished and it recommended you get one and allow you to do this. Might save you from a lot of trouble in the future.
