Today, I received two email notifications from my ISP that I was sent emails containing viruses. Seems that the viruses were so poorly hiden my ISP filtering software even picked them up.
Oddly enough, both emails had addresses or similar addresses to vendors who advertise on this site. Here is the email from my ISP for one of them.
