You have just been lucky, Mihnea.  I get reports from AVG fairly frequently
(like perhaps once or twice per month) of email attachments which have been
determined to be viral and have been isolated safely in "the virus vault"
by AVG where I can decide what to do with them later.  Usually the decision
is simple - get rid of the offending file.  I use Eudora and like it very
much as an email program but it does nothing to prevent viral attack.  I'm
on a cable modem but I also use ZoneAlarm as a (free again) software
firewall.  Even with ZoneAlarm, AVG finds incoming viruses every now and then.

Go to http://www.grisoft.com  and download AVG.  It's free and does a great
job.
