There's also the whole business of efficiency. The main sources of infected files for me is through e-mail (received many here) with a distant following through downloads (not yet received an infected file here) and through files on floppies handed to me (again never received infected file here). Instead of running the real-time scanner, I use the plugin for mail and the hook to check downloads with an antivirus that my download manager provides. With this arrangement, the checking only occurs when needed. This is more efficient than having a real-time scanner checking files on the system all the time. I used to be a real-time scanner advocate but I've since changed my opinion. ;) - -- -=Allie C Martin=- List Moderator | TB! v1.61 | Windows XP Pro PGP/GPG Public Key: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Subject=2B0717E2 _________________________________________________________________ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iEYEARECAAYFAj0zRpIACgkQV8nrYCsHF+KoHACfQbKktbCuZXMi1yyh5BaKvYOP y0gAnjnVbq04VZkcxOGwNEianHDL9GK7 =DVWn -----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/
