[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 3928634, member: 42584"] Occasionally an email will contain hidden malware that ends up in your computers' cache if/when you open it, where it could stay until/unless you manually dump it. It could enable 'pop-ups', record your key-strokes, activate your onboard microphones & camera, send your inquiries to fake look-alike sites, or just sit there and do absolutely nothing. Best practice to to NOT open any emails that might look suspicious (though we all screw that up occasionally). Second best practice is to periodically and thoroughly clean your computer system of unwanted 'junk', to include the cache on your modem/router. [/QUOTE]
