AV software will be useless if developers choose to make their software unscannable. Users will just stop using AV software or - more likely - choose software that does not cause any problems with the AV scanner. Do you really expect the average user to tweak their computer and AV scanner before installing The Bat!? Don't you think they will rather choose another email software? Do you think they will be happy to hear that it is their own fault if TB! has been deleted after they updated their virus scaner? Just asking. I wonder why you think this is acceptable. -- Cheers, Thomas. http://thomas.fernandez.hat-gar-keine-homepage.de/ Message reply created with The Bat! 4.1.11 under Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 3 Current beta is 4.1.14.1 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Hi, M> But can you trust an antivirus that reports false positives? Once again, this is not a false positive.

Hi, JF> But other Mailclients must have Software Protection against piracy. It never ceases to amaze me that software companies make war against their paying customers. Non-paying pirates don't have a problem with software protection - there are ways. The paying customer does not have these ways, and he has to suffer from the hostile mechanisms applied by the developers. It's as if the developers are actually trying to kill their own business. As a matter of fact, they are succeeding. -- MfG, Altomailto:a...@treadstone79.de The Bat! 4.1.11 Windows XP 5.1 build 2600 Service Pack 2 pgpc3nB5wS6Tf.pgp Description: PGP signature Current beta is 4.1.14.1 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
