For those who may be interested GFI offers free online scanning of the
vulnerability of your email program to malicious files. This is different
from the online virus scans available in that it is determining your
susceptibility to attacks by such as vbs scripts, clsid vulnerability,
active X vulnerability, MIME header vulnerability. The test takes only a
minute or so - all you need to provide is a valid email address for them to
test.
