The Mac can be infected with the virus, but will display no symptoms.
However any files sent to a PC will infect the PC (imagine my surprise).
I don't see any free detect/remove software for the Mac but it might be
worth a try.

&gt;
&gt;I'm still trying to decypher what is going on 
&gt;with NS Word files being stripped from e-mails
&gt;going to people at Emory.
&gt;
&gt;One theory expressed here is that the Emory
&gt;virii scanners are stripping *.doc files that
&gt;contain nasty bits and pieces.
&gt;
&gt;As part of my continuing efforts to trouble-shoot
&gt;this mess, I sent off a test message to my wife's 
&gt;account at Emory over the weekend.  It contained a
&gt;24k JPG and a 29k DOC file.  The DOC file was stripped
&gt;from the email and the JPG came on through.
&gt;
&gt;The DOC file was created on her work machine at Emory (Mac)
&gt;and it _is_ possible that it is contaminated with 
&gt;something.  But I have no way of finding out what that
&gt;might be.  
&gt;I am willing to send this rebuffed file to anyone who
&gt;can help me figure out _why_ it is being rejected by
&gt;Emory's servers.
&gt;
&gt;Can anyone help?
&gt;
