Re: VIRUS Alert for the LIST

        I wouldn't argue,   I'd just change the authority, owner, change
programs to 
        adopt the level I thought was right.    Change files to use or
exclude.

        Tell them we're going to drop their software if we couldn't.

        Glad to see I am not the only one who has been unsuccessful in
arguing with those NCS
        consultants. Now I don't feel so bad :)
