There's a qualitative difference in that you will know that you've received an infected message right away and you'll know which one it is and finally, you'll easily find it. The NOD32 POP3 scanner just gives a POPup announcing that it let through an infected message with the from address and subject. You'll now have to find the message which could potentially be a tad tedious if it came with a lot of other messages.

Yes, but you can't execute the attachments, even if you tried, while the message is within the quarantine folder. You have to deliberately copy the files to another area on your system and then execute it.

You're equally as safe. It's just a matter of preference and how you wish for infected messages to be indicated to you. I personally like the quarantining approach. - -- -=Allie C Martin=- List Moderator | TB! v1.61 | Windows XP Pro PGP/GPG Public Key: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Subject=2B0717E2 _________________________________________________________________ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iEYEARECAAYFAj0zQ7wACgkQV8nrYCsHF+LmcwCgt9zhhpMEpE4lxKNxMAaNkmqy s/cAoI3jr5IU6x9bvUeZ2yF0FsjJXmX3 =iC/s -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.61 FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://www.ritlabs.com/bt/
