I would like to send electronic greeting cards (E-cards) to family and friends but have heard that many of these web sites are virus-prone. Can anyone offer advice on which e-greeting web sites are the safest to use? If you have personal experience with sending e-cards, which sites would you recommend? Thank you.

The problem is not necessarily that the E-card you send contains a virus but that you set up the recipients to open E-cards that could be infected especially with spoofing so common.
So -- the E-cards you send could contain unwanted active-x commands, spyware or virii; your friends and family could be set up to open infected E-cards - is it worth it?
Only you can answer that.
