Vista Security Saves me….

OK so I knew that this was Malware – AND I executed it on purpose to see which security system on my machine would pick it up, or I knew I faced a rebuild! Look what happened – I opened the e-mail just like my mother might do, double clicked on the attachment (a zip), double clicked on the ‘document’ with a .doc.exe (she wouldn’t know!) extension, and BANG up pops the Windows VISTA dialogue box to tell me that this file is infected and it’s blocking execution of the file. Vista – safe computing :)
