[Ham-Computers] Anti Virus Programs

Sat, 4 Jan 2003 18:00:17 -0500

If Mark had a visual problem, he would know that Norton has a HMA problem with
many memory resident TSR's. Always have had, hence screen reading software
programs must use external speech devices or an internal card. The memory
resident programs, such as DECSOFT Access 32 will not work. Mcafee works better
in this case. 	

Hence, depending on your Internet habits, and your system configuration, may
determine which virus software will serve you best.

I stand corrected. AVG just came out with a plug-in for Outlook Express
versions 5.0 and higher. In any case, I have found Norton Anti-Virus to be
more effective.
