Listen, I've been watching and seeing people say "if only" and "if, then" and both are a waste of time. My ISP serves parts of 3 states, runs the city's cable ISP service, had a number of commercial customers, etc etc etc. And not once has there been a problem with servers being overloaded ... except for one failed hack attack that brought out the firewalls. What I'm saying is that YOUR ISP can screen all incoming mail for viruses like mine does -- if they are willing to do so, and would stop and realize that the cost of the software has *GOT* to be less than the cost of cleaning up after multiple viral infections break loose. There is NO reason why you shouldn't contact your ISP, relay information on the number of virus attacks you've had to put up with, and ask what their excuse is for not providing protection -- which is currently available to them -- for their paying customers. Check it out for yourself, and work toward learning how nice it is to see "checked with AMaVIS ver ..." on each e-mail that makes it to your mailbox. Refer your ISP to http://amavis.org ... check it out for yourself first, if you'd like. l.d. P.S. Microsoft supposedly has a "path" up on their site for Code Red -- Arachne V1.70;rev.3, NON-COMMERCIAL copy, http://arachne.cz/
