Glo.....Save your atteachmments to your desktop and right click on the 
icon and select 'Scan with AVG'.  If it is declared free of virus, you 
can delete it from the desktop and go back to you mail folder and open 
the attachment in the normal way.

FlagRash is an app to change 'read only' flags on files back to 
'archive' or whatever.  Google will show where to get it.
