This is so true, Brock.   I run weekly updates and when I did my update this
evening, I realized that I had been infected by W32.Badtrans.B@mm some time
after last sunday.  Fortunately, Norton AV provides a tool to repair and remove
this virus which is not really vicious as far as the OS is concerned.  But I've
probably spread it around unknowlingly to other people and this is something I
don't really want to do to my friends.

I guess that I'll be running daily updates from now on...

Cheers,

Guy
