I agree with the 30-40% pirated estimate above and much higher rates outside the U.S.

I only buy prefab computers (Sonys, Dells, etc.) that come with a licensed copy of hahahahahahas so it's never been a concern for me, but when you have millions of users out there with pirated copies (and let's face it, a lot of them our offices and business) it means that virii are spread quickly and even if you can't be infected personally, that doesn't mean it won't slow down the Internet for everyone with millions of these e-mails bouncing back and forth on the networks.
