Hi barry,

It's not just about interactions that you make.  An anti-virus that monitors in 
real-time will catch malicious software that a Website may try to execute.  
Unless you are running MAC, you need an anti-virus, or watch your PC go khaboom!

Regards,
Barry.

Subject: [access-uk] Necessity of running both firewall and anti-virus

Hi all

I have komodo firewall and AVG pro running on my machine, with Malware
antibites on demand that I run every weekend.  I do wonder if I need AVG
running and, perhaps could just use that on demand at weekends too.  I don't
open dodgy emails, nor download dodgy programmes or music.  What do you all
think?

Cheers

Barry
