Subject: [IMail Forum] Quality virus alerts
Hi everyone,
Just a quick poll... how many of you actually receive regular updates VIA
EMAIL about new viruses, and if you do, through what service or company?
I've tried using McAfee's "Dispatch", but they never seem to arrive in a
timely fashion... at least not early enough to pass the information on to
our clients if necessary. I'd like to start keeping clients more up-to-date
on the latest medium-or-higher risk virus, but some days I barely have time
to shower (ewww!!) let alone take time out to visit the myriad websites and
hunt down the latest info. A nice, timely email about viruses that appear
to be increasing in threat, and their behavior, would be wonderful here!
Thanks,
Marc
