Never open a .zip or a .exe file unless you know the sender.
Here's a link to FedEx
FEDEX
These come in many flavors. FEDEX, UPS, USPS, etc... delivery attempt notices. Birthday, get well, etc... eCards. "My site has new pictures", "I have posted the vacation pictures", etc... weblinks.
A very healthy dose of paranoia when recieving any email you did not expect will save you hours of frustration later.

even if you think you know who they are. Even better, turn
of the computer, pull the plug and be safe.

<< <i>So to be clear on this...Never open, anything, from anyone,
even if you think you know who they are. Even better, turn

Never turning on the computer is the safest. However if you recieve an email send an email or confirm by telephone before opening an attachment.

Any virus software will handle these simple bugs. If you're barebacking without virus software, you'll pay in the end. --Jerry
Anti-virus is always your friend.
I get those UPS/FedEx emails frequently....I just ignore them.
