Computer virus's are a popular subject as most people don't know very much about them and are willing to believe anything. The truth is it is not that easy to get a virus. All the shareware sites on the internet scan the files before allowing them on their site. You can download them safely. I have downloaded hundreds of files from these sites and never had a problem.
As for e-mail virus's, it is simply not possible to get one by opening and reading e-mail.

Go to this site- it will dispel all the computer myths that abound.
