1. My avast is indeed updated. Matter of fact, it just did 2 auto updates today and I’ve scanned and rescanned the file.

  2. Do I really want to unzip it and look at the contents?? If it is a virus – and it certainly shows the signs of being Mydoom – won’t that launch the virus?

  3. How do I send it in a password-protected zip file? I’m not sure how to do that?

Thanks for your response and suggestions, but I really am hesitant to unzip it.

Anybody have other suggestions? Instructions for getting the thing to avast without having to unzip?
