Just because you virus program says your clean does not always mean you
don't have a virus.  Remember, a virus program is only as good as the
virus definitions it knows about.  Even if you update, there are viruses
out there that there has not been definitions for.
To protect yourself further, don't open any unsolicited attachments.
