There is a patch available from Microsoft which prohibits the opening of certain types of attachments. This makes Outlook (not Outlook Express) pretty secure. In any case, who opens attachments these days anyway? It's all down to common sense surely. Use a good virus checker, keep it up to date (I update my signature files daily), don't open unexpected attachments and, if you use Outlook or Outlook Express, turn off the Auto Preview feature - then you're pretty safe, regardless of the email client you're using.
