Be aware that opening, downloading and pass along pictures, jokes,etc exposes you to more opportunities of being infected with a virus. In my opinion...am I right , Admin?

I know you're asking the Admin, but you're absolutely right.

If there is something I like to pass along I copy and paste. I'm thinking that is safer??

You generally can't catch a virus from a picture. But other kinds of attachments definitely pose a threat.
