All true. However, the *only* reason for taking the extra-resource using step of having Norton scan your e-mail is if you are running a box where for some reason you cannot run Norton in auto-protect mode enabled.
Having Norton in auto-protect mode enabled already makes it impossible to open an infected e-mail or attachment without Norton catching it. So, if you are running in auto-protect enabled mode, *and* having Norton scan your e-mail on the way in, you are enjoying repetitive redundancy, and probably slowing down your retrieval just a touch. <g> Yuki ^_^ Saturday, February 16, 2002, 3:22:15 AM, Geoff wrote: GL> Hi Hans, GL> On Friday, February 15, 2002, 1:34:05 PM, you wrote: >> 1.
