You always have a choice. Sometimes it is difficult to make the right choice. Consider a high school student who is doing poorly -- they can make the easy choice and drop out or they can make the difficult choice and work harder. In the case of M$, the easy choice is to accept whatever M$ does and produces. The difficult choice is to find a viable alternative (and even more difficult is to sell that to management). In the past, M$ bought out or crushed any viable alternative; they have been finding that more difficult lately.

I attached the description from your first email. It is stating that it's being blocked when it's trying to send to you, in which means it's infected on their end and are being scanned/blocked on it's way out from their systems. Have you contact them about the possible of virus attach on their end. In any case, we were alarmed and run the scan anyway.
