>It's not because I'm sloppy, Al. It's my opinion that the only people who need run 24/7, memory resident virus checking are people who don't practice safe computing. I do virus check Word and Excel docs. I run virus checks regularly, and I am now running a fire wall. I _never_ open attachments I'm not 100% sure of. I have high security settings set in IE. I keep up with MS security patches. I don't visit random websites. If I'm going to be fooling around (I'm not quite sure what that would mean) I'd start up Norton before proceeding.

Hey, sounds like you're covering all the bases... except for the most important one, regular backups. I have no doubts, you do those too < g >
