heh-heh... If I did not know Ed so well I would have been offended. But I know he can't help it (actually, chooses not to help it <G>).
Foolish or not, the impact of running in DOS/Windows for so many years leaves me with hefty dose of CautionItis as a footprint in my mind. I figure running AV-Mac could not really hurt anything. And if it turns out it is not really not needed for me, perhaps it would be more helpful for eMails I may receive and forward that have an infected attachment that impacts Windows OS only. If that eMail winds up in someone else's incoming box and infects their Windows PC I would feel awful (especially a family member or client - my friends all know better <g>). So if nothing else I would like to try to take steps to stop the potential for passing infected attachment eMails to others even though my future Mac is impervious to any such attack. So, in that case being a fool is me just trying to be considerate, and making an effort to not be help responsible for passing on something bad to anyone else in case their defenses are weak.
