Consensus opinion required - was 'more worms'

[Dan Murphy]

Well I don't have a problem with it, since I don't use HTML mail
anyway.  Even when I am using Outlook or any other Windows mail
client, I always make sure it is set to send plain text only.
I was looking at this very list yesterday with Calipso, and one of
those pesky worms got me, but fortunately Norton grabbed and
quaranteened it.

in fear, but around us in awareness.
