Does anyone R> know if it offers/uses periodically updated virus info files? I have used Kaspersky Personal Pro for almost 8 months now. It offers updated virus-protection files daily, and sometimes several times a day. You can set it to check automatically at a time of your choosing, or update manually with a couple of mouse clicks. It includes a plug-in for The Bat! You have to enable the plug-in through TB!'s settings. But that's simple. Just go to Options/Virus Protection in the main window for the dialogue window to do this. When I accidentally started to download a message attachment containing SoBig a couple of months ago, Kaspersky AV brought the download to a halt and gave me a loud audible and a visual warning before it was halfway to my machine. Needless to say, I was grateful! R> Alternately, can McAffee VirusScan be used and how? I had some difficulties with Mcafee last year. I like Kaspersky better. -- Best regards, Mary The Bat! 1.61 on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 1 ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.62r | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
