Virus concerns from posting other people's videos (2 posts)

    I'm creating a web site http://www.starzoid.com where people can email me their videos (about 3 minutes of their singing, dancing, comedy, etc.) so I can review them before I post them on my web site. I don't understand all the technology of this, but I'm worried that when I open their email and play the videos, there might be a virus attached that could mess up my computer (or blog). I have McAfee AntiVirus software on my computer but I know that no anti virus software catches all things. Does anyone have experience, knowledge, or recommendations about this? Thanks!

    Save the video attachments on your machine and then scan them using your AV software before opening them.
