Carol, I've actually been very lucky. I've been pretty virus free, according to Mcafee that is but I don't have a second anti-virus checker so I just take it as read. I've had no unexplained reboots or sluggish performance and my routine virus scans report zero infected files found so I just take it that it's doing its job. Cheers, Sandra. ** To leave the list, send a message to:- ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
