Tips for avoiding a virus:

- If you get an .EXE you didn't ask for, don't run it.

- Don't run Microsoft Outlook.  Use Eudora instead.

- Don't click on anything ending in .VBS  (Visual Basic Script).  Chances 
are that no one you know knows how to write a VB program, so anything with 
.VBS is suspect.
