22kb makes me supsicous, since I recently recieved a whole slew of viruses with that same filesize.

I say get rid of it.

Or roll it into a joint. Smoke it.

That'll learn 'em.

according to some stuff i read on the register, this is probably bagle-something. an ugly POS worm that places a few backdoors. delete it.

Ditto. If you don't know the guy, delete.
No, in fact, even if you know the guy, delete it, unless you've been awaiting for the file. Some worms get names from your adress list to send you crap.

I agree, whoever it is can always resend the file if they really want you to have it. But if you download anything without knowing what it is - you're risking trouble.
