You should be fine at home with what you have, however Outlook Express is targeted by the viruses because of its intuitive nature. Basically a virus can procreate out of Outlook without you ever opening mail. I would recommend using Eudora or something else.

Quick question here. On my PC at home I am using a 56K modem on a telephone line.
I use Microsoft Outlook Express for my e-mail and PC-cillin antivirus software to detect viruses.
It is my understanding that you only need to use a firewall antivirus program for cable,
high speed, DSL, fiber optic internet service or anything else other then a phone line.
Is this true?
