Outlook doesn't have an built in antivirus capability, but it handles
attachments with a severity they deserve!

Patched correctly, Outlook lets NOTHING through by way of attachments,
with the exception of file types that you have specified.
Obviously, if you allow a whole lot, you place yourself at risk.=20
This means that while I have AV software, there isn't much for it to do
- and I don't have to worry if I'm a bit slow getting updates...

I did receive it as an attachment, that's what Norton reported

Date: 12/14/2002, Time: 18:22:42, DaRkWoLf' on SNOW_SHELBI The email
attachment Inc..exe within Unknown00000000.data within
Unknown00000000.data is infected with the W32.Klez.H@mm virus.
The file was deleted.

Though, I was still able to open the email, and inside it there was a
bunch of characters....i wonder what are those....

What does outlook do?! I mean does outlook has some integrated
antivirus?!

Hmm? Someone more knowledgable might want to answer that one because I
received it as an attachment. Are you SURE, you didn't get the
attachment?
Are you using an anti-viral program like Norton or McAfee?  Outpost
re-named it and Norton killed it on this end.
