Where is the .wav file?

Guest

I received an email with background sound. I would like to save the sound
file but where do I find it? This is within the source -
------=_NextPart_000_00EA_01C77B12.E46B1800
Content-Type: audio/wav;
name="ATTD1.wav"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-ID: <34BDC0E1B13C40918686CB840B184126@XXXXPC>
I changed the part after @ to XXXX. The code does show my PC name correctly.

I did a search everywhere (hidden files included0 for both ATTD1.wav and the
longer string in Content ID but nothing was found.

It is likely that the file is MIME encoded into the mail message.

Save the message, and examine it in a text editor. If it has many many
lines of "garbage" text, then that is the WAV file.

To extract it, run the message through a decoder, such as STUFFIT. That
may spit out the original WAV file.

Doesn't a paperclip show for the message?

No, Frank, no paper clip. I did have all the text stuff "dev" referred to
and will try the stuffit program suggested. Thank you for responding :)

Hi-
Appropo your comment about Stuffit being useful. I just downloaded a trial
version and found to my anger Vista refused to run it stating it was not
Win32 comaptible.
Suffering succotash! Could Vista really see something troublesome in opening
and running an .exe file that will setup a trial version of Stuffit? Any
advice is appreciated.
