Agreed, the recent Bagle virus recently slipped past NAV on my work PC, it was only my suspition that made me submit it to Symantec who confirmed my suspitions. A quick manual update soon fixed NAV. By the time I got home my AVG6 was updated and was able to spot the virus. I think a lot of it is in timing. I tend to out of habbit check my email at home around 6-7 pm, which is why AVG is set to update arounf 5 pm.
I always tend to hit the manual update button prior to loading up Outlook or Outlook Express for the first time in the day out of habit. Can't be too safe can we
I'm just wondering how safe Scott's system is if he has no pro-active anti virus Do you do regular syware/trojan/ malware sweeps at all??
