Don't open them, I've heard there's a new breed of virus that can be launched without attachments. |

Home computer users were warned about a new virus which launches an automatic attack.
Most viruses rely on the user double-clicking on an attachment sent with an e-mail to infect the computer.
But a new virus, called Netsky-V, is rare in that it starts to infect the computer after the user clicks on the subject line of the e-mail just once. |

Copies of the Netsky-V worm have been found in e-mails with the following subject lines: mail delivery sytem (sic) failure, mail delivery failed, server system failure, and gateway system failure. |
