Yep. I hear you. My UNIX Mac OS X laptop has been totally infested with virus files since OS X started grabbing so much of the desktop market. ;D The main reason for all these Windows virus infestations is due to the Windows scripting engine and how Windows programs handle files. I'm not say that UNIX/Linux desktops won't have issues with the cyclones of air between the keyboard and the chair just click, click, clicking on things but if the apps and os themselves have intelligence built into them to at least punch the user in the face with a warning that what they're doing isn't such a good idea .. we won't face near what the Wintendo crowd does. We won't get infested just by having the damn things on a network. -ben -- "Gratitude is merely the secret hope of further favors." -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
