Post by thread:[PIC]: Mail viruses

In the past fortnight I've received four copies of the Magistr virus from four different list members. No harm has been done, but I worry about their security. Would everyone please keep their AV s/w running and current please. The next virus doing the rounds might not be so benign.

that's sorta paranoid isn't it InoculateIT is one of th ebest av solutions there is and thats it's free for personal use is a big + if you want to fork up huge amount of cash you should try AVP, by kaspersky labs. {Original Message removed}
