| OpenOffice, | Just a thought, but is there a chance of picking up a virsu from downloading | OpenOffice? | Thanks and Regards, I, and others, assume you mean "virus". People have gotten into a bad habit and assume all malcious software are "viruses". The fact it all viruses are malware but not all malware are viruses. So the real question should be... "...is there a chance of picking up malware from downloading OpenOffice?" The chance is EXTREMELY small IFF you you download it from official distribution sites/channels. If you download OpenOffice from a torrent, a P2P or from Usenet then the chances of malware being inserted into the installer is EXTREMLY high. -- Dave Multi-AV Scanning Tool - http://www.pctipp.ch/downloads/dl/35905.asp --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
