-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello Mike,
VBG>> I have no Virus plug ins that work with The Bat! and no VBG>> Anti-Virus scanner running active. In actuality I have 2 AVs. pccillin & Norton fully updated. I manually choose to disable their running active on purpose. I like my system to run quicker & faster & do not appreciate the lag these types of programs create. MA> Yikes!! Victor, please promise me you'll never, ever email me? Thanks. MA> Then when I get a message from you I'll know it's definitely one of MA> the viruses you've caught. ;-) hehe, ok. But I cannot promise I'll never e-mail you :) MA> Seriously, you absolutely should have a scanner. You could be one of MA> the people passing on viruses to people. Even if I had executed the virus and it be one of the worst viruses in existence it really wouldn't have affected me in the least. I've built my systems to be +virus proof and I can literally catch over 400 different viruses in one shot and it wouldn't make a difference to my information or OS & boot stability. To be honest I don't even need my currently updated AVs. MA> Not having a scanner not only means you can get infected, it also MA> means you can pass it on to other people. You're right! & you got me there. I know not every one has systems & plans in place like I do to fend off viruses, Trojans & worms. I have plans on writing a report on how to operate & maintain a safe and healthy OS after I finish my spam report and to be honest you've made a point I really didn't stop to think about. One thing then I would need help with if someone would be so kind. One, I understand The Bat! supports the AVG plugin, but do I need AVG running all the time or can AVG simply launch unnoticeably when I hit send to send mail out & then just stop? I would like AVG to only scan outgoing mail & at all other times remain inactive not scanning anything else. I am right now going to test sending nimbda to myself while pccillin has pop3 mail scan active :) I'll let you know ;) - -- Best regards, Victor B.
