Hello Thomas,
I agree with you here, a good AV program is *never* superfluous. TB
isn't the *only* program running accessing the internet and there are
always the floppy disks.
I have received 3 viruses the last few months, which were caught by
PC-Cillin. All were attachments, which customers or suppliers sent me.
If you don't know the person sending you an email than you don't open
the attachment, but if it is a known person...
So I think Marck has been lucky so far...but his time will come one
day.. (I whish you the best though Marck).
Regards
