Simply give her a lesson in email etiquette. I tracked down this handy link for you to send her -

Make sure she DEFINITELY knows that those damned CC: forwarded emails are a major boom for virus writers and spammers alike.

Let her know that you don't like all of those forwards in your inbox, but you are nice about it. Tell her she will eventually run up against someone who becomes IRATE by it, and they certainly won't be as nice as you are in telling her. Trust me - they exist, I've seen 'em!

Make sure she knows what a great guy you are for saving her from the wrath of someone nowhere near as nice as YOU by politely informing her of this truth re: the hated forwarded email messages.
