Short of, or in addition to, using to a Mac, aren't there other strategic advantages we can give ourselves in re worms, viruses, etc.? Someone said that reading list mail on Yahoo rather than first-hand would do it in the case of those lists? If so, would it work for other lists? From my own experience, I have the impression than an alert and resourceful ISP can intercept, as mine does, the problematic mail? I'd switch rather than risk infection. Reading about other problems makes me think that most such things can be avoided by using Eudora instead of Microsoft's Outlook for e-mail software? I think Rafe said so on this list. You can use Microsoft's Internet Explorer w/o using Outlook; I do, although I wouldn't if I knew of a good and promising replacement for it. Sam

I use McAfee on my home machine. It's the same deal, $40 a year and daily updates. I haven't noticed any impact on my system's performance and it's saved my bacon a number of times.

Re: filmscanners: Anyone having problems with Scan@leben?
FWIW, McAfee shuts me down using graphics on a small RAM base. For some unknown reason, it makes backups of each scan as I do them, and crashes the program (sometimes the system) after one or two scans. That might not be a problem if I bought more RAM, but I bought Norton, instead.
