I think that the real problem with all of the "odd emails" that people are getting are due to the fact that there is a new e-mail virus every day, and a new "major" one seems to be hitting everyone every week/every other week.

note: if you ever want to "safely" open a .com file, the only way is to open it in a text editor, if it looks like garbage then it's probably an exe of some sort, if not you will basically see a text/batch file that can do anything from being mostly harmless (dir command), to a format c: command.
