You could get around it only if Norton has some option to "automate" this process thus not popping up those windows on you, but doing all what he does "in background". For instance if is possible to set it to move & rename the infected messages in a quarantine, so you can examine them later if you want, and to proceed further its work without your interaction. On the level of TB, would be possible to exclude its temporary files only if it would have its own sub-folder (eg.: thebat) for them (as Total Commander has, for instance) inside the OS's temp folder. But again this wouldn't be good in this particular case because an AV _has_ to deal somewhere with files it scans. - -- Mica PGP keys nestled at: http://blueness.port5.com/pgpkeys/ [Earth LOG: 475 day(s) since v3.0 unleashing] OSs: Windows 98 SE Micro Lite Professional IVa Enterprise Millennium Windows XP(ee) Micro Lite Professional 1.6, and, for TB sometimes, Gentoo and Vector Linuxes via Wine... ~~~ For personal mail please use my address as it is *exactly* given in my "From|Reply To" field(s). ~~~ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEVAwUBQ6f1NLSpHvHEUtv8AQM0FQgAqLEO/6h4439a+v80vadxBNOr/E+rBcrR 9OOXqB7Fe+0YCu9nAGEwmea1irfp253TOYRmU/aftrLZmF9Hr6lojsEWwAx1z/57 RwhMlrHrs5B0THdRpqRpBphKxnf1ntIvDbLLb4dW7FMPIGZ1jUBkxc6x8o7SxiZ0 ip/e5FcePeXjvQNruvRPtSw34bneoV3/NccUVrFH3rwwcga0xY/Pf2bwhVoXlLpD UveV/YqqzUQ5c1qQscQYqKF/JzfUiHDfFlwKs/jJh2KhcW+fTuRxPmibNFZHiDNW himxeQPoQLXEyhhyaJEnYN+hfZaw8c+wqChRvIl4HZR51G9BlZGOQg== =6h04 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.62.14 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
