Hi Tom,
My server does exactly what you just described. It
screens viruses and destroys the contaminated files. You receive instead a
message giving information on the virus and where it came from.
This is highly practical, as you pointed out. If I
am not up to date with the latest version of Norton, I can at least depend that
they are...
We shall see how they do tomorrow with CODE RED,
which is supposed to spread throughout the computerized world....

Just a suggestion...
If someone could post the YahooGroups abuse complaint web page, we all
could send abuse complaints asking YahooGroups to begin screening all file
attachments for viruses before they are sent out to YahooGroups.
It would be a lot easier for YahooGroups to maintain "up to the minute"
virus identification and screen out those infected files, than all of us
thousands of users to keep currant.
It would also help if they notified the sender that they sent a virus out,
allowing the user to clean their machine.
Just a suggestion that is easy for all of us to do.
Regards,
Tom
