The solution is simple.  If people would stop opening attachments they
weren't expecting, these things wouldn't spread.

Maybe I'm just being optimistic here, but it seems like people ought to be
bright enough not to open an attachment that comes on a message that just
says "Hi, test", regardless of what operating system they're using. (And
yes, the latest virus going around really *is* that lame.  It's not
sneaky at all.)

Like a lot of automotive problems, the root cause of the problem is the
nut behind the wheel.
