I never use OE either, I've always used Eudora. I set it NOT to open attachments but to download them into a "downloads" folder. From there I take manual action on a suspected file. I decide what to do with it. I'll run McAfee on the directory but even though that may say everything is o.k. I'm STILL VERY careful. Any .exe or .com files get trashed, regardless who they are from.
I bought an Apple ibook last August to play with and I've been using it for the net ever since so I don't worry about viruses at all while using it. My main PC is a Windows 98 machine (300 Mhz) but I'll be getting a new Dell in a couple of months.
