When you have your mail set for an "AutoPreview" and/or  "Reading Page" on,
is your system subject to automatically allowing a virus attack even if you
do not open the suspected mail message?

That was somewhat true in the past, but current versions of Windows and
Outlook have been patched to the point where the reading pane and autopreview
are fairly safe.
