I hope it hasn't infected any of the school's computers in any of the labs, the profs' offices, or any of the computers that help run the school like in admin or fin. aid because I'm assuming it was just personal computers of the students.

Well, here's an idea to avoid these things... DON'T USE MSOUTLOOK! You'd think people would have figured that out by now...

I have a better idea on how not to catch them. Don't be a moron. You spend all day on the internet, arguing about whether the Reliant had phaser cannons or not, and you expect a girl to send you an e-mail saying "I love you"?
Like girls can use computers anyway. Pfah!

I suggest MailWarrior. It's tiny (337k), offers a BeOS style interface, automatic sorting (folders), signatures and messages linked with certain domains or addresses, and a handy address book that can be sifted.
And you can chuckle upon opening such a message as you see the code spew out on the message, but not be executed.
Of course, there are those extremely malicious viruses that will defeat the e-mail program and del-tree your hd faster that you can say !@@$$@###!! Girls in particular tend to enjoy such digital contraband.

No, life is only given to me once and I shall never have it again; I don�t want to wait for �the happiness of all.� I want to live myself, or else better not live at all. I simply couldn�t pass by my mother starving, keeping my rouble in my pocket while I waited for the �happiness of all.� I am putting my little brick into the happiness of all and so my heart is at peace.
