i got some kind of symantec software when i first purchased this computer, but did not renew after the first year, so i haven't run a virus scan in approx two years rather than open all the doors wide and have virus scanning software try to stop stuff from coming through (or, as you guys seem to do, run a scan once in a while to see if anything did get through), i simply don't allow bad sh1t to get through thusly: i don't allow activex to run in IE (goodbye flash -- too bad, that's life) i don't allow OE to show html mail (goodbye web bugs -- yay!!!) i don't open attachments from anybody ever helps? rudy ____ • The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM • ____ To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Send Your Posts To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To set a personal password send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the words: "set WDVLTALK pw=yourpassword" in the body of the email.
