It's the w32/duni worm. Delete it. It's not a superbaddy, but it's a worm nonetheless.

dogmajay---I get them all of the time.DON'T OPEN IT!DELETE IT!!
My wife works for Liberty Mutual.She uses a computer;all of the
time!They told her;at work;to delete ANYTHING(especially with
attachment)if you don't know what it is.They figure;that;it's better
to piss off;a customer;then to take a chance on infecting the whole system! Irish

listen to them... when you do not know what it is or where it is from it is time to exercise the "delete"option... what's the worst than can happen? open it and you end up with nothing on (and I do mean nothing) on your hard drive and you are hosed (welcome to the full re-install and full file loss) or you can delete it and then if it was something important the sender will usually send it again...

as a rule of thumb "delete" is the way to go if you do not know who the sender is or if there is something attached...

MilkToast;if it is important;it will be sent again.It is beyond me;
why some people get a kick out of this;but it takes all kinds!Irish
