- IMHO, File Guard is a waste of time and money and produces more problems
- than it addresses. It also ties you into a commercial product which
- cannot be as current as Disinfectant. File Guard has hosed more systems
- here than I wish to recall. Why in the world would anyone want to use
- it, I don't know.
