ATTACHMENTS RENAMED
This message came to the UW with an attached file with a
name that ended in .zip or .exe. Because files of this
type can automatically infect computers with a virus, the
attachment has been renamed.
o If the sender of the message is known to you, and you
were expecting the message, you need simply save the
attachment using the original name or save it as is and
rename it back to the original name on your computer.
o If the sender is not known to you, it is possible that
the attachment contains a virus and you may simply
delete the message.
o If this message claims to be official and
instructs you to open the attachment to get
important information, it is likely to be fake.
Virus writers are increasingly using sophisticated
social engineering techniques to mislead people.
C&C never sends important information about your
account or password in an email attachment. Instead
you will be directed to a web page on a C&C site.
Please contact help at cac or your local computing support
if you have further questions.

Hi- This is the link I went to
http://wagda.lib.washington.edu/data/geography/wa_state/
and then I picked the 10m Wenatchee data (this was the url)
http://gis.ess.washington.edu/data/raster/tenmeter/byquad/wenatchee/index.html
I am attaching the zip file I downloaded from there ...
Thanks!!
