I'm running Mac OS X. I just looked at all the PDML digests I've

my system so far.
How would I know if any of these digests had a virus in them?
No attachment, no virus. Looks like your ISP or e-mail client is
stripping away attachments, as it should.
One of the good things about being a Mac-head is that there are
proportionally so few of us that idiots who write virus programs
don't have any real incentive to write them for Mac. Mac is not
immune to virus attacks, but they are few and far between. I've been
using Mac since 1994 and only got hit with one virus in all that
time. It was a nasty one, though. It didn't come via e-mail but on
a floppy that one of my writers sent to me. It trashed my hard
drive. If you don't have Norton Antivirus on your Mac, get it
without delay.
