I suppose you would only need to take these measures if you run Outlook
or MS Messenger or Internet Explorer, n'est-ce pas? I don't run any of
those, don't even have them on the system, use Moz for both browser &
mail. So there's no way I can actually be infected, right? Just getting
abused by the emails from infected systems. . .

As a generic suggestion to everybody, an ideal way to discover that your
system has been infected is to add an illegal e-mail address such as the
following to your address book:
v.alert [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Any virus that uses your address book to spread itself will use this
address which is completely non-existant so it will bounce back to you
from your e-mail server. On seeing such a bounce, disconnect and begin
cleansing.
