Related to my previous post, another email-borne virus has been spreading itself thickly upon the net this week. Not one to let any opportunity for sorting through today’s rubbish pass him by, scruffy technocrat Dave Winer posted this suggestion on what to do about it:

  1. If you use Windows, do not open enclosures to email messages.
  2. If you use Windows, do not open enclosures to email messages.
  3. If you use Windows, do not open enclosures to email messages.

A succinct recommendation, yet I can simplify it further.

  1. Do not use Windows.
  2. Do not use Windows.
  3. Do not use Windows.

At some point, this concept will sink in. I’m sure of it.
