Thanks for the great info Jaqui and Bonni. :) Jaqui..could you possibly explain what Sophos means by the next text I have copied here? It's all greek to me, but sounds interesting nontheless. (like what is a PDA) ----------------------------------- "The threat of viruses infecting PDAs and mobile phones has been widely hyped by some anti-virus companies. The fact is that there have never been any reports of viruses successfully infecting these kind of devices outside of laboratory conditions. However, it is possible for PDAs to carry a virus into a company (thus avoiding any email gateway protection), and for the suspect file to be copied onto your desktop from the PDA." ------------------------------------
