Default Re: Dilibrate VIRUS Attack!

Thier is another option, you can add a MailSweeper program to ensure that your email program only downloads to emails you want to see.
It will also help in dealing with spam. A free one available is MailWasher
At Work we get on average 100-400 Viruses a day and and at least that many spam emails too, so our MailSweeper is a lot more advanced than MailWasher, but it seems like a good home application.

for me, e-mail viruses aren't a problem. I have my e-mail address that was set up by my ISP, but I only give that address to immediate friends & family. All others get a yahoo / Hotmail address, and most of thos e-mails get deleted w/o a look. I NEVER download an attachment unless I'm expecting it. Even w/ the PBW, I have my account set up to not e-mail a file. I download it myself.

Something else of interest. M$ had it (May still have it) where they would mail you a free CD w/ all the security updates to date. I've had it setting on my desk for a couple days & just opened it. They also included a 1 year trial of CA EZ Armor LE Antivirus & firewall. I don't have a place for it now, but I'll need to check it out. Anybody ever used it?
