Hi Guys,

I just received this email:
=================================
Hello,

I noticed whilst browsing your site that there were problems with some of your links, when I tried again with Internet Explorer the problems were not there so I assume that they were caused by me using the Mozilla browser.

As more people are turning to alternative browsers now it may be of help for you to know this. I have enclosed a screen capture of the problem so your team can get it fixed if you deem it an issue.

Kind regards,

=================================

I checked the msg. source in the email header, and it seems ok. I also visited the guy's site, and it also seems legit.

What I'm worried about is he sent 2 files:

1. Screen Capture of Website.scr
2. Part 1.3 (This file is not recognised by WinXP and if I right click and do properties it says it is a '3file', whatever that is.

I right clicked on the .scr file and selected 'Test' and immediately a window opened saying there would be a change to the registry, which I immediately disallowed. (From memory it looked something like scrvrs.exe, or similar).

I'm pretty much on the ball when it comes to spotting viruses (aided by AVG) but this one has me foxed, especially as the email seemed sincere.

If the guy was sending a screenshot wouldn't this be saved to his clipboard and he would need to save the file as a jpeg or gif or similar?

I don't want to reply to the guy, yet, but I'd also like to know if there IS a problem with the site in Firefox that I haven't come across.

Do you think I'm being paranoid or does this seem a bit 'scammy' to you guys?

Much obliged for any feedback.
