Hi Reg, I read your email with great interest. I too had VWs for many years and still miss those reliable air-cooled engines! In fact I sold my last VW in 2002 and did not have the courage to see the buyer take my trusted Camper Van leave my drive-way.
I have also come to the conclusion that Virex, good as it was in the past, has not kept with the times. Although I have been able to update my Virex dat files, I now have ClaxXav and use it as my prime anti-viral application. Sorry, but cannot advise you with regards to the infected files and folders. My knowledge in this field is very limited. I hope someone will be able to give you some appropriate advice. Oh, yes it is a good idea to ensure one's outgoing mail is clean. All the best and kind regards, Philippe on 25/3/06 7:15 PM, Reg Whitely at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hi Lara > > Thank you for your response. Yes, there are reasons, and I'm not > paranoid.
