That's why I use Yahoo mail for mailing lists. Ain't
gonna get no viri that way. For my normal mail I
use Netscape. No version of Outlook on any of my PC
boxes, no Windows Scripting Host either. WSH was
the MS answer to AppleScript, unfortunately the only
people who use WSH are the virus creators. :P

Is Outlook 5.0.2 for Mac AppleScriptable? If so I'll
bet an enterprising cracker could do the same junk
to Macs.

There was already an applescript virus not long ago. It was called 
'Simpson' or something like that.
