Silence. That is what I hear on this net.group. I hear silence. There is some discussion about a particular program's ability to detect a virus and then there is the reason I still read this group, new product announcements. But the one thing I'v never seen is a discussion of the mechanics of fighting viruses. Is the viral world satisfied with it's basic tools, scanner, activity/change monitor, and heuristic analyizers? Is that the end? Are all of the people in the community doing nothing more than comming up with new scan codes for whatever virus has shown up this week, trying to understand the ugly inards of some os so they can tweak their monitors a little better, and trying to see yet another combination of code that only a virus would use? Why is there no real discussion on techniques and ideas? Is this part of the conspiracy of silence that infects the viral community? Just curious, Yaron (The Jester) Goland - -- RSA proved you could patent math, whats next? Fire? "Sorry, you can't rub those two stones together! First is a Patented Process" -The Jester
