You have to remember that unless you're using MS Word to read your e-mail -
it is *impossible* to catch a virus by opening and reading the text. The
only possible way to get a virus through e-mail, is either as an attached
program which you would have to be stupid enough to open, or as a "word
macro" - which only gets executed in MS Word.
... Wishing without work is like fishing without bait.
