Hi Wes,

I gave up on Virus software years ago too. They always seem to be one
infection behind.

The only time I got the sniffles would have had the bug waltzing right
by it undetected. If that's the level of competence I can get for $50
a year, I wonder what it would have cost for a package to have caught
that last bug that got me.

Anyway, those utilities offered by grc.com disinfect the system by
strengthening the natural defenses instead of trying to look at every
byte coming in the pipe. Virus-ware can be cpu hogs - or at least
they were when I sampled them a long time ago. When I watch my
friends grow moss waiting for their systems to boot beneath their
load, I must say that my bias remains confirmed.
