M What extra functionality does the plug-in provide? Certainly nothing that I need but YMMV of course. This topic has been discussed before but as soon as NOD detects the virus, I delete it. Every time. I've used NOD for about five years, never been infected (I know I shouldn't say things like that), never had an FP. There's no need to quarantine - NOD will send samples to ESET automatically, if necessary. IMO, *no* email is so important that it can't be deleted as soon as NOD detects it, long before it gets anywhere near the MUA. Good as it is, TB! has always been flaky; its developers have enough to do without having to maintain yet more code. -- Best regards, William Flying with The Bat!
