It's also probably worth mentioning that Microsoft products that support VBA or VBScript are vulnerable to viruses written in those languages. If I'm not mistaken, most of the viruses that spread by e-mailing people in the victim's address book are written in VBScript and as such I suspect that only Outlook and Outlook Express are vulnerable to those.
