[muglo] Beg pardon! Help requested

Hi there:

I need some help understanding this please.  This is the way one of my 
Brothers' replies to anything he does not want to open. He has set it as 
an automatic reply.

He is not a Mac user and I wish to verify please if his comment about Mac'
s being able to forward Window's (or any other) viruses etc is accurate.

I haven't heard that Mac users can unknowingly send on virus or trojan or 
worm files or what have you.

TIA

Susan
