One favorite among people I exchange messages with are forwarding of Word files (30+ infected in the last few years) and also other formats, that they for reasons, often obscure to me, do think are OK and vital for the message.
Some people may even pass on .scr files for some reason, but the majority don't come from them of course. I'm sure this minority was passing them on "Unknowingly" without the intention to passing on viruses. Also, you're forgetting social viruses like hoaxmail. I regard these as human mind viruses and obviously they don't harm computers, but these are still annoying as they come from people you don't want to filter and that should know better. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
