I received an email message from a friend and for whatever reason rather than simply deleting the email (which I normally do), I clicked the link.  Before the link successfully "loaded", I exited.  Unfortunately, I deleted the email, so I don't have the link to provide any additional information, but I seem to remember my computed attempting to connect to something with CVS in the title.  I have since run a Full System Scan which did not detect any issues.  What are the potential ramifications?  What further action, if any, should I undertake to safeguard my system?  Thank you in advance.
