OpenOffice,
Just a thought, but is there a chance of picking up a virsu
from downloading OpenOffice?
Thanks and Regards,

Very little chance, especially if you also check the MD-5 checksum I think
it is it uses. If that matches, you're good to go!
HTH,
Twayne`
I seldom check MD5's but here, Firefox invokes my AV to scan
the downloaded file, and I scan every download with other
malware programs (SpyBot S&D, SpySweeper). I have not yet
(knock on wood) picked up anything. I suspect an MD5 check
would reduce your chances of catching something from an OO.o
download to the vanishing point.
