Is it possible/likely to get

1) Spyware
2) Adware
3) Virus

from email opened in Outlook Express containing HTML? I have all the latest
MS security and critical updates and I use Norton Internet Security w/ its
firewall and Norton AV. All of these have the latest updates. I also use the
built-in Windows XP firewall.

I don't use AOL.

TIA
