VERY Unprofessional...

Cochran can't see the forest for the trees.

He's focused solely on the DBX corruption problem in Outlook Express, where
he has his head firmly planted -- oblivious to other important issues.

He's a Johnny-One-Note and can only sing one song.

Prosecutio stultitiae est gravis vexatio, executio stultitiae coronat opus.

Email Scanning does not cause me any problems in OE because I...

KEEP MY DBX FILES TIGHTLY COMPACTED.

DELETE ASH & TRASH REGULARLY & COMPACT SEVERAL TIMES PER DAY.

DON'T LET THE FILES GET TOO BIG...

THEN EMAIL SCAN WITH CONFIDENCE, SPEED & TRANQUILITY

Vide infra for my further uneventful experiences.

Exitus Acta Probat.

Email Scanning has never given me any problems.

This fuss about the supposed evils of email scanning is a tempest in a
teapot as well as bum dope.

I keep email scanning on for both send and receive and have an extra layer
of protection...

If others want to strip off that layer of protection that's their loss --
and their problem, when something goes wrong....

AND I don't send out infected files to my contacts.

Benefits All 'Round...

For Both Me & My Correspondents.

It's quite foolish not to email scan if your AV/IS software incorporates
that feature -- and I wouldn't want a program that did not have it.

I don't want the virus, trojan, worm, or whatever, to even GET to my hard
drive unannounced -- much less for me to open it.

Further, email scanning doesn't slow me down at all.

Emails open quickly and securely in Outlook Express, OUTLOOK, Windows Live
Mail, Mozilla Thunderbird and Forte Agent.

Further:

Banks use redundant and overlapping security systems.

CIA, DIA and NSA use redundant and overlapping security systems.

Submarines use redundant and overlapping security systems

The Federal Gold Depository at Fort Knox [think James Bond and _Goldfinger_]
uses redundant and overlapping security systems.

The New York Fed uses redundant and overlapping security systems.

Home Security Systems should employ redundant and overlapping security
systems.

Cybernetic Systems, both institutional and domestic, should employ redundant
and overlapping security systems -- contra the untutored wailings of little
rampant pogues such as "winston" and Cochran....

Some rampant, semi-hemi-quasi-educated technician pogues in these newsgroups
are very much ANTIS when it comes to Email Scanning because they have seen
it lead to corruption of Outlook Express DBX files in the past on the
systems of equally ignorant and careless rampant pogues who do NOT regularly
Clean Up and Compact their files.

So they rant rigidly, rapturously and craniorectally inverted about the
Terrible Evils of Email Scanning...

Amusing little fellows they are.
