> I am not vulnerable. I have the same virus defs that you do. When I get a
file that is capable of containing a virus, I check it. The last thing I
want is some sysadmin incapably playing mom by telling me what's good for
me.

The problem is that you don't check it. I hate users that think like you do.
We must get 4 or 5 people a month here that were "careful" and lost all the
data on their hard drive. These "careful" users decide to remove NAV from
their workstations because it makes their machine slower. I laugh and laugh
when they lose their data.

The fact is that a virus like Goner comes out and my mail server is updated
immediately. Your workstation is updated when you chose to update it. So you
open your file from your friend and destroy your machine because you don't
want your sysadmins updating virus defs on a mail server or blocking well
known infection file types... good luck with that.
