    Kama sutra? Email virii for me when I use windows don't pose a threat. If you don't open attachments then you don't have the problem.

    Ah, they problem is that worms are tending to reproduce in multiple ways, such as email and exploits, but whichever way you get infected it will still try to comprimise other machines using every method it has (ie if you get exploited, you machine will also email everyone in your address book!)

    I havnt seen any damage from it yet :) and for thoose who are wondering, THIS is what where talking about!
