You can imagine how much email I've got about the anti-virus article today (an MSN front door story can draw 500,000 or more readers in eight hours), but most are about the same two topics:
1) If you've had problems with Spybot and other programs slowing your PC or removing perfectly good programs, see this article about using a different browser instead of Internet Explorer, to block spyware from installing itself in the first place. Both these articles originally appeared on Slate about a week apart last month.
2) If you're on a Mac, my general advice is "don't worry," because virus writers seem to be chasing Windows PCs instead. If you use MS Word a lot, Norton AntiVirus can catch the viruses that show up in Word documents. [Paul Boutin]
