Norton AntiVirus 2002 claims W32.Netsky.P@mm!enc has infected my inbox file. I
did not open any attachments, I was still in the process of downloadin a LARGE
amount of emails from my account (1000 or so, mostly spam). I had disabled
Norton's auto-email check as it keeps stopping download of emails to report it's
found something -- I figured as I was just going to delete all the spam without
reading it it would be OK given Mozilla being more secure than Outlook.
Prior to using Norton to quarantine the file, Mozilla (1.7.3) was freezing when
I clicked to show the contents of the inbox. All other folders behaved as
normal. Quarantining the file has solved the problem, but all my emails are lost!

Reproducible: Always
