1) but most viruses/wurms/trojans that are famous use email.
2) the 2nd way is using features of the most used browser.
3) and then there will be the copied stuff (disk/cd/download).
4) and then there a some very special ones.
with using a pure email program and non-ms-exchange MTAs most
viruses (and the others) would not spread so fast.
i never said, don't use anti-virus software, just it would be cheaper
to use a proper email program: an easy and cheap way to prevent
viruses from spreading.
well, this will be my last comment on this subject. this is a forum
about EQ and nothing else.
