(OT) Somebody Has A Virus! Was: RE: [Shotimes] OEM tips

[Paul Nimz]

AV software is reactionary while a firewall is pro active.  You can't stop a
virus that you don't have the update to if you rely on AV software.  A
firewall will stop all unwanted activity.  If you use Mailwasher it will
stop it before the firewall.
