Hi,
Well, viruses cannot really be contained in hyper-text files, but hyper-text
files can trigger viruses in existence. What does this imply? That if an
infected computer visits your site, it will suffer.
I will now ask you this: if a person does not maintain his (Window$) machine
properly, should you be really concerned about it?
What is the URL? Or the file? What is the vulnerability?
