I think with reference to the virus problem he may consider moving away
from Microsoft Software. Whilst other systems are not impervious to 
attacks from worms etc, there is less chance of of a blast.exe type
of scenario.

The problem with anti-virus methods is they can only be implemente
after the fact by companies such as Norton.

For SPAM I use sendmails access file for most of it and I get about
10 per day also, I consider this good protection but at the expense
of blocking large blocks of IPs.

Kind regards
