Should offer your customers virus screened e-mail accounts with their wireless service then it becomes less of an issue. Only customers that we ever run into problems with are our dialup customers that are to cheap to pay our $3/mo for a second e-mail account so they get a hotmail account or yahoo account (or similar) and end up paying us $35-70 to clean out their computer from viruses because they opened up that attachment (and also we require our wireless customers to have routers so they are either entirely or partial immune to viruses like sobig.f that tries to spread through open file shares or msblast that breaks in through rpc security holes).
We even started to require routers from our customers that only have a single computer either that or a good firewall ap but when I can offer then a 1 port router for $20 then they have no reason to not to ;) Best regards, Eje Gustafsson mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] The Family Entertainment Network http://www.fament.com Phone : 620-231-7777 Fax : 620-231-4066 - Your Full Time Professionals - --- -- SM> Watch out for abnormal customer usage.
