Viruses and Email Attachments Virus programmers will often attempt to disguise their program as another file by naming it something like wacky.jpg.vbs. Such a file extension could potentially be dangerous to your system, if it's a virus or a worm.

You can add a layer of security by changing this default to an 'EDIT' command. Go to the Control Panel and select the Folder Options icon.
