Hello Thomas

This doesn't happen here. Once I've deleted it that's the last I hear.

Again, this doesn't happen here. I've never lost any messages and I've
got no infected emails in either TB's files or those of Mailbag
Assistant (which I create every couple of days). I've just checked those
folders to make sure. In any case, I scan the complete system daily (as
well as having AMON running constantly. I also do a full TDS scan daily.

I received a virus last week purporting to come from a TBOT member. NOD
popped up a warning, TB! continued downloading (I think, although I
wouldn't swear to this), I right-clicked the offending message in TBOT's
folder, hit 'delete' and there it was, gone. All my folders are set to
compress on exit. No sign of it anywhere now.

Why do we seem to have such differing experiences? Anyone?
