I'm not that daft! Even ntl don't use such poor grammar (do they?), I have an up to date antivirus so I scanned before opening.
Both had virus attachments. Knowing that ntl's internal mail strips attachments I have forwarded to Peter Savage, the supposed senders and to Customer Services.
Isn't it about time ntl got their email house in order? How come other ISP's have virus checkers and anti-spam in place and ours doesn't?
