Of course you could always use the other method. If anyone sends you
an attatchment mail them back before you open it. Ask them for an MD5
checksum and what the file is. If it's executable and you don't trust
them a lot then it's probably best to ignore it. Complete paranoia is
often the best defence against viruses.
Most O and OE problems can be fixed with the spydog patch and even
these programs support filtering which should allow you to consign all
messages with attatchments that end in .vbs to /dev/null
