(there is a registry change you can make but it will most likely confuse the casual user as it disables some features in windows) rejoice if you own a Mac or *nix box Title: Re: WMF Exploit - Warning! Post by: Glenn NY4NC on December 30, 2005, 04:44:18 PM Thanks for the heads up Don. We have two computers here in the home office that need anti-virus and anti-spyware software installed... now looks like a very good time to do that! :o AMfone - Dedicated to Amplitude Modulation on the Amateur Radio Bands
Spysweeper looks like a good one....... Someday I'll force myself to get back into Linux ;D |
