Sign up for it and when it comes place the attachment on your desktop and scan it with your anti virus

Thanks for that aliEnRIK. I did just that and it was a PDF document, scanned with AVG, virus free.

Anti Vir is known for false positive when using Heuristic detections, then again so are most other anti virus products.

I have found this subject very interesting and as usual learn a lot from contributions.

I have just been looking round and found Virus Total, has any one used it?
