    Jim: You're the second person I've met this year who "saves" viruses on his
    computer. One of our volunteer firefighters, who is also our tech support
    guy, collects them on his Mac. I'd never even paid attention to viruses
    until two years ago when I switched from working at a newspaper that was all
    Mac-based to our PC-based system at the fire dept. We spend more bloody
    money on virus software. . .

    Cheers,

    Not job security from me. Never had an anti-virus program. I just pay
    attention to my e-mail, and don't use IE or Outlook. In fact for some
    reason, I decided to save the different viruses I recieve, sort of a
    collection I guess. And no, my computer has never been infected.
