Someone sent me this idea - would it work I wonder? I recall the one some years back that said put 000 as the first name in your address book and that would work - but it didn't. This looks more viable.

Put the letter A as the first name in your book, with the address [EMAIL PROTECTED] and viruses and worms will give up when they can't send it. If you the get an email saying your email to that address can't be sent you know you have problems!

Like everyone on this list I keep up to date virus and firewall facilities operational at all times so hope I will never get caught, but we all know these things run ahead of the virus updates so one day, maybe! Would this be a further line of defence? Anyone care to comment?
