Just a forewarning - I got an e-mail today saying that a parcel was sent to my address by UPS and it had a zip file attached. Norton 360 e-mail scanner detected and deleted a trojan.

I've never know UPS to send out these types of emails unsolicited so I'd say if you haven't ordered anything that would be shipped via them I'd just delete the file/message.
