Default False Email from MS

There is a rash of false notification Emails going around today purporting
to be MS updates.
MS does not use Email for updates, warnings, or anything else.
Do not open.

I have been connected to the internet for a few years now, and have never found a
period when bogus M$ emails (usually containing a virus masquerading as an "update")
have NOT been a constant plague...

In other words... they are nothing new!...

(but cheers for the warning anyway, you're heart's obviously in the right place)

We'd best close it down, then!
