You have to be very very careful these days. My office has Office Scan, but wow, are they're the Viruses out there. Some of them come with attachements that you'd have to "double click" to get. Now with a new batch of them, all you have to do is highlight the email to read it....BOOM, virus is launched.

The problem is that you constantly have to upgrade your "anti-virus" software....I mean daily. The MIS guy here at work sits at his desk 2-3 hours a day dealing with upgrades and virus elimination.
