                Donald,

                The whole world will not switch over to Unix 
                - the average user will always be more confortable with
Windows 
                unless Unix will at one point offer the same  seamless
user-friendliness. 
                So it will always be a problem, one which cannot be solved
by telling 
                others not to use what they've accustomed to - and one which
cannot be
                ignored.

                The whole world does not run software which is a good
culture medium
                for email viruses.  I mostly use nice old UNIX software and
it would
                take a number of extra steps on my part for some embdedded
virus to
                get a chance to run.  If your software automatically
executes stuff
                in attachments, you need to change your software, not
develope a list
                of subject lines you are freightened of.
