is this email from :<1bob1@gte.net> or is it from :<webmaster@nccf.com>
and what it is? thanks for any help

Had that one to... probably a worm.. delete it

These things can carry viruses and trojans. Maybe keyloggers as well. You may need to run your protection to see if there is any on your computer.

yea, I was wodnering about that, but there was no picture and no download to download, and my virus protecter is updated and nothing tried to come up, altho yahoo has a virus protecter in it and maybe it stopped it from even showing up before my protecter had a chance??? I have gotten that stupid big@boss thing like 30 times till I finnally realized I could block them, maybe this is the new email addy for the same virus. Wish they wouldnt use the title webmaster as I am expecting many emails from webmasters right now
thanks for your help least I knwo its not a real web master

I thought so to, but it snuck through my protection. So just be careful with these things.

If you know that you arent going to get any sort of attachments sent to your email addy, or emails larger than say 30kb in size, you can easily set filters to delete those emails as they come in...

can i do that with hotmail? how??

You cant with hotmail...

Only thing you can do with hotmail is put your junk mail filters to exclusive and making sure that you have all your GPTR email addresses in your contact/safe lists..

as a precaution, i try not to open even mails from pple that i do not know but since u are a webmaster i am not sure if you can do that too..
