Is the document viewer on (most) Linux distributions any safer? I wouldn't recommend an OS change to customers, I'm just curious. My tactic with these problems is to emphasize user education and safer browsing as well as 'vetting' from where they're getting documents. I also encourage digital signatures and "workflow" style document control if the environment has that many documents especially PDFs.

Use whatever format you like (except silverlight <grin>) I am fairly
paranoid and open documents in different "trust zones" regardless of who sends it. I have gotten pwned in the past by people I trusted not because of them being untrustworthy but because they were pwned also. I just assume anything can be infected now. Also, you can still be a victim of goatse in ASCII. ;)
Anytime you want someone to review something let me know. If I don't have
other pending commitments, I'll look it over.
