I have had three viruses with Outlook Exp. (McAfee caught 'em all, but it was pretty scary) but none with Hotmail. Is that just a coincidence?

Microsoft may have a virus filter which deletes infected emails.

Hotmail uses McAfee in they're site and Yahoo mail uses Norton.... all emails coming through these sites are checked for viruses before they get to your mail box....

I'm changing ISP's, so will be using Hotmail from now on. Wow, that's great. Thanks for the info!
