Hi, someone has messaged me I think, it flashed up on my phone as from Pistonheads but for some reason nothing came through on my PC.

So if you messaged me looking for some assistance please do so again and I will get back to you.

Be very very careful.

It maybe a bugged email. Do not click on it. it puts a worm in your system.

Put it straight to the bin. I hope you have a good antivirus system.

Erm what.

Just generically be wary of links in emails.

The idea of no-click code execution in Outlook or Hotmail is from viewing an email is.... Fanciful

Alarmist tripe.
