nope, I checked it:
Quote:
I don't know where the file was being downloaded from - whatever's set up on
CNET for this file, I guess. I use both McAfee and Solomon on my PC, and it
complained about a virus, though I can't remember the name. Probably a
corrupted file, but I'm not taking a chance with Bat right now.
Is it a good product?
EOQ..
Not sure that last sentence is qualifying for a review but anyway as
Macafee had for a while Symantec borrowed code inside it, likely they
had the same problem...
Symantec had used a student who wrote a Thesis to write some of that
stuff and McAfee considered a Thesis had no copyright.
Right or wrong didnt really matter as once Symantec started looking
they found other pieces of borrowed code in other programs and as its
all quiet about that period I suspect they forked out the cash....
Anyway, I answered the guy so maybe he gives it another go..
I guess he likely once got seriously burned by a virus, and will be so
again considering he runs those 2 (why both no idea as I thought
latest versions are the same just have different name...)
Best regards,
tracer
