I also use AVG free.  to be safer, i never read email on a windows 
machine, and i don't give my user account "admin" privs.  since my main 
computer is ubuntu, i can clearly see how many times email, downloads 
and zip files kick out an unexpected ".exe" file --which i have to 
assume is some kind of trojan horse.
