> As for e-mail virus's, it is simply not possible to get one by opening and reading e-mail.

That used to be the case, but it is not true any more. If you receive an infected Word document by E-mail, and use Word to read it, it will happily infect your system. If you use WordPad or WordViewer instead, you do not have to worry about this, however.
