Rage, I would reccommend a router also, WITH a firewall. Most firewalls now adays have "Email Protection" which basically if you recieve a .exe or other executable file in your email it won't allow it to run (such as with Zone Alarm). It simply renames the .exe (or whatnot) to .zba (something like that) and if you WANT to load the file you can save it to your disk or open it from there.
