While this is not a 'plug' for Virus Buster I am concerned that such a
simple statement as above could be seen as negative for what is, among
the several anti-viral packages on the market, a basically good
product.  Furthermore Leprechaun Software, who market Virus Buster,
are very approachable and will readily assist all users.  I note that
the poster is a down under person and thus can readily avail himself
of this facility. FLAME OFF.

Each of the anti-virals has its pros and cons - none are a 'complete'
solution.  We successfully use Virus Buster on student access PC's and
are most happy with the results. DISMOUNT SOAPBOX.

I will e-mail Triu B Phan and see if he can be helped.
