Definitely. Ours do not get read generally for the very reason that they have been taught well and they don't open files if they don't know what they are. Warning.txt just looks too dangerous to people who have been warned about files with multiple extensions (ie txt.scr, etc) and that you can't trust anything (which proves you can't win - keep quiet and people start running any old file that comes in via email, too alarmist and people stop opening anything, even when you want them to:)).

Cheers
