Don't know if this is just a furphy or not, but a mate here has warned me that over the next few weeks, because of the anniversary of 9/11, to beware of e-mails, (even from people on your lists ), that contain anything relating to the World Trade Centre.
Especially anything marked WTC Survivor, as this wil delete all your .dll files.
Even if this is bullshit, it pays to be prepared.cya

Hi Grandpa !I am getting to be so careful that I do not read any E-Mail I do not know where it came from or the subject line does not make it quite clear what it is about and flag it "Block Sender" without opening it. Even friends and family attaching anything have to E-Mail me first and tell me what it is they are attaching, unless it is Jpegs and even they are now reported being used for devious purposes !My Son sent me an E-Mail once which picked up an illegal attachment at the office machine he sent it from, he was not aware of having been included, being the most commonly used method of spreading Bugs and Spam !
