Guest guest Posted November 11, 1999 Report Share Posted November 11, 1999 Hi Geri, It was interesting to read Borje's comments about the datafellows antivirus program, it sounds like it's pretty good. Although I have McAfee, I wouldn't rely on any program to be 100% foolproof. I've used the datafellows site for years, I especially enjoy reading about the hoaxes and urban legends. I usually read through their list of viruses and although I couldn't rattle them off, I do recognize them by sight. I remembered seeing prettypark on the list, so I never even tried to download it. My PC is for home use only, therefore I have the time to check out emails and can afford to simply delete anything that looks suspicious, even if it's not on the datafellows list. I have more problems with those phoney chain letters, and hoaxes, than with viruses. I find them to be sooo annoying. There's no rule that says you must download and open any and everything that's sent. There's just too much maliciousness out there. My rule is, When in doubt - DELETE. It's worked for me, so far. Have a good one, Barbara Ann AIH Transplant Recipient Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
