Fun stuff. Think I got that one a couple times myself. People keep being silly enough to execute it so it keeps getting around.

YEAH-
I never saw it as the anti-vi program deleted it before as soon as it saw it.
Those people need to get a life.
It is a worm mailer though.

Well-
You could try making a rule from the email.
Click the message button on the top & select 'create rule from message'
OR under message click on 'block sender'
However if any of the parameters you set for action change-such as the originating email addy--it won't work.
The best bet is to make sure the anti-virus program he's using checks the email in real time.

WELL------
Does he have his email account to save all his mail on the server?
It should be set to delete it otherwise he will keep downloading the same mail over & over
or just create a rule like I said & it will be deleted from OE by itself

Sounds like he's already infected, I would run a full system scan, and also go through all recent emails and shift+delete the one that has the attachment if its not deleted already.
