True, that is why we are very strict on scanning for viruses here.
And knowing what attachments we open before we open them.

The only bad thing is, scanners only find viruses they know about.
After other people have already been hurt by them.

The thought is very scary about being one of the first ones to receive
a new destructive virus that norton's scanner doesn't know about.

What do you do in that case, except for put your head between your
legs and kiss your derriere good-bye.

Regards,

Jim Langston
