I use webmail. I have no address books. This way, any virus that hits my inbox and isn't taken out by antivirus won't spread. It's just inconvenient to use a local client, and every time a new virus shows up, it irritates me to see that all of the school's administrators and important staff members (dean, chancellor, director of student life, etc.) have the "all students" addresses for the listserv in the address book, meaning that he virus gets sent to everyone in the school. That's the big reason I don't use any sort of local client.
