- you lost me, Eric. Why recommend the MOST EXPENSIVE solution?!?
-
- I recommend that you use Disinfectant, Leon, and add GateKeeper
- if you feeled inclined to take a little extra trouble to be part
- of the "early warning system" of (power-) users who are likely
- to be the ones to discover, catch, and warn about new viruses...
-
- if you can afford to spend some money, consider paying Jeff the
- shareware fee for VD, if you got lots of money (for updates also)
- get SAM in addition to all of the above!
