So I was looking in my email and I see that I got an email in my spam folder and it says it was from billgates@microsoft.com and what's weird is that it's dated to last Wednesday and I just got it today. I think it might be a virus or something if I open it. Here's a picture of it: http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b102/SportsGMR21/billgatesemail.jpg

You can view it without being infected, unless it's exploiting a flaw in decoding of an image. Which I doubt is the case.

Most likely, it will simply be your standard garbage spam, that managed to slip past Yahoo's spam filter. However, I don't recommend following any outgoing links from the message.
