=20 Outlook doesn't have an built in antivirus capability, but it handles attachments with a severity they deserve! Patched correctly, Outlook lets NOTHING through by way of attachments, with the exception of file types that you have specified. Obviously, if you allow a whole lot, you place yourself at risk.=20 This means that while I have AV software, there isn't much for it to do - and I don't have to worry if I'm a bit slow getting updates...

I haven't had my av trigger a warning for more than a year... And yet I have no problems with not being able to receive attachments that I want to receive... What does outlook do?! I mean does outlook has some integrated antivirus?! -----Original Message----- From: mswindowsxp-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mswindowsxp-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Charles R.

Someone more knowledgable might want to answer that one because I received it as an attachment. Are you SURE, you didn't get the attachment? Are you using an anti-viral program like Norton or McAfee? Outpost re-named it and Norton killed it on this end. >-----Original Message----- >From: mswindowsxp-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >[mailto:mswindowsxp-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Jeff Kolp >Sent: Saturday, December 14, 2002 5:06 PM >To: mswindowsxp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >Subject: [mswindowsxp] Re: Spice girls' vocal concert > > > >I got it but don't see the worm, would it have been able to propagate? > >Jk --- It's lights OUT for you viruses!
