I believe the virus can be transmitted through one's computer. Many others think the same thing. Everyone know computers can be infected by virus. I've been wearing gloves and a mask now every time I'm on it.
As all can imagine, in my profession, I've made many enemies over my lifetime (not even counting the ones I've made on stock message boards), and now they can get to me through a "friendly" email. Not sure that texts do the trick, that has not been proven yet. Facebook is also suspect.
