Now that is brain dead to draw a blank like that.... Thanks for the pointer.
Ultimately, I will use the virus scanner, but for now I sit behind very
good hardware and software firewalls. And my email is first read (for now)
on my Win2k PC, which has a virus scanner. At that point I'll try the
--nodeps part and we'll both know. And I assume that "virus" in this
context is used broadly to include trojans, worms, and all the other little
virtual critters we've invented, the better to plague ourselves.
Thanks for your help.
