I don't use any safety software. My rule is "Don't open nuthin" unless
it's
a .doc or a .jpg AND you know WHO sent it, and WHY they sent it. I've
never caught anything.

Your policy will work well until someone you know sends you an infected .doc
file. It happens all the time. It's not a matter of "if", but a matter of
"when". The worst offenders are people who, for various reasons, have no
protection on their machines.
