There are two chances of nasties (again in the hosting context): First: an infected/bad file is run on the server. This should never happen except under your control Second: the server is infected due to a deficiency on the OS or an application running on it. A fully patched servers, firewalls and similar protective methods should stop that. From the above it could(will) happen so background scanning by a suitable tool should suffice........ That means that items one and four above are unlikely. It also means that item 3 will probably happen and possibly item 2 flowing on from that depending on what the application/site is doing so whether that is important is up to your application/business/whatever. > You just wait, I am going to write a virus just for OS X platform..:P > You mean they don't already exist? :^) Kym K --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.
