The fake e-mail (not from Microsoft) itself is not a virus - it does have
one attached.
You will continue to get them until you either block them, change your
e-mail address or the sender gives up or is forced to give up.

Kathy, your ISP proabaly has email controls yo can use to bounce those
annoying emails. They all contain dangerous attachments. SBC Global should
be able to help you.
Also, the nasty email senders got your email address because you posted it
on the Web! Don't do that anymore. They use computers to automatically
acquire all the email addresses on this and other sites...
