How do you figure that, Bob?
Since the early 90's, I have received lots of email
on my DOS machine and I've never had a virus, Ripper
or otherwise. In fact, I've personally known only one
person who ever got a DOS virus -- and he was infected
by some pirated software (go figure).
ILOVEYOU and the other "MicroSoft-LookOut!" worms
hurt far more people than the DOS viruses ever did.
Cheers,
Steven
