Hello Dennis, and welcome to the forum... As A.R. stated, attachments can be a virtual landmine of Virus/Malware ...

Go here to do an online scan: Trend Micro HouseCall - Free Online Virus and Spyware Scan - Trend Micro USA
Or download and install/run this: Malwarebytes Anti-Malware - Free software downloads and reviews - CNET Download.com
