Sigh.  Look, I simply didn;t remove the strings from memory.  What's your
point?
=-=-=
Exactly this:False trips cause problems for both you and the person
whose machine if falsely diagnosed as being infected.  Such false
trips cost both of you income. A point which, given the release info
I've just gotten on v1.5 you tend to agree with. You say:

Actually, it just showed that our beta testers did not run into that
problem (recall that the reports I mentioned above were limited in number).
This implies that they don't use one of our competitor's products. So what?
There are many people who opt not to use our competitor's products.

The ` so what' is that many others /do/....

Allow me to explain that one of the things I do for a living is such
testing.  IMHO, interfacing with other, similar products , where
possible, (even if only for direct a/b comparison) is part of a
complete test.

And, sometimes, a minor mistake is make and is blown way out of proportion.

Sorry, Ross, if you thought my posting was blowing your error out of
proportion, but I honestly don't see how. Recall, please, that this
thread started with a general post was directed at all of us for input
on a specific problem.

My intent was not to attack a particular program. (Indeed, the names
of the packages the author mentioned were one point I didn't even
consider.... ) but rather, my intent was a general answer.

Good hearing from you.
