I received this attachment from one of the hotels on Bali. They sent it to me when I requested info on the hotel. When I questioned them about it - they did not know it was harmful - they just thought it was nice to see fireworks explode. My anti-virus program picked it up and I deleted 4 files, without looking at them. Wrong thing to do. I could not use WordPerfect or AOL. I finally had to completely delete both WP and AOL and install them over again.

To answer your question - I checked with some people in the know and they told me it's completely harmless (unless you delete the files it becomes attached to.

Good luck and enjoy the fireworks.
