>In Outlook and Outlook express, there is an icon that is displayed if the email contains VBS. This icon looks like a little tornado. If you see this icon, do NOT click on it, as that will run it. I've followed this rule for some time and even received infected emails, but never been bitten by them.

Craig,

Looks more like a scroll of paper to me.< s > Actually, there are four file extensions to be concerned with: vbs, vbe, js, and jse. The first two are VBScript files (with vbe being encoded). The latter two are JScript files (again the jse is encoded).

The reason that it (the various WSH viruses) goes after SCT files is that this is the extension that's associated with Windows Script Components as well as VFP forms.
