MS software is endemically buggy.  If you use it you should keep on top of
the various patches from MS.  Check their website.  Also check with CERT
(www.cert.org) for current happenings, useful pointers, and links to
related sites. 

"Suspicious" mail can be safely read on SCN, because we use different
and more robust software, and we don't enable various dubious "features".
Of course, if you download it to your own machine you are on your own.
