Before bombing the list with virus "warnings", a good resource is 
http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/ they have a listing for every virus and virus 
hoax known, and an easy to use interface to find what you're looking for.

As a rule, you are only in danger from a virus if you run an executable or 
macro, plain email messages CANNOT infect your PC.

This is not intended to be a flame of any sort, since I know everyone who 
passes these along is doing so with the best intentions.
