I like most other people have a few Yahoo mail accounts i use while on the internet. I have recently in one of them received a virus in a attachment that I had received.
I'm not really sure about this so perhaps someone can tell me. If i do not down load an email or attachment from the yahoo server my pc shouldn't be infected correct? I used the scan the attachment link in yahoo mail and discovered the virus. I immediatly deleted it from my inbox in yahoo and emptied the trash. The only way to get a virus from web based email programs is to download the mail or attachments to your pc right?
Thanks for you reponses in advance,
