<email virus> <<Email virus -- Not exactly true, if you are not using MS windows, opening an email WILL release virus. Such system can be UNIX/VMS/etc....>>>> Certain viri can be embeded into the header of an email and are executed automatically via active X in MS Windows . The header is the first thing read when you check your mail, and is read automatically. Both MS and Netscape have documented cases of system commands being executed when a browser reads the header from an email. This has nothing to do with attachments, they are a different beast. Best advice... always keep your browser current and patched with updates, and delete attachments unknown to you. best wishes, Maximum_Gain
