1) "No. All documents, regardless of what type (text, movie, images, viruses, etc.) have a three letter extension."

yes, I realize this ... but are there any extensions that are specific to viruses and NOT other files???

I have Norton on my macintosh G4 but it doesn't scan emails, it only scans the hard drive upon shutdown. I simply don't open any attachments unless I know they're coming.

If you think about it ... computer viruses work like their organic counterparts, but because it makes our computers, and not us, sick, many people take the possibility of "infection" for granted. I am amazed at how many .exe files people send me and all I can think is, why did you open this file???

eek
