Re: FS: M-416 Tent/Trailer combo. Ohio
 

You've lost me here Mike. Kid gloves? If you are using a good, quality
virus checker there are no kid gloves involved. Hell, I even check all my
email as a matter of course and it's all automatic. Even the email I send,
or replies I make, are checked before they are sent from my system and they
are noted as such in the signature section. If there is something that is
suspect it's moved to a "vault" just for suspect files and I go from there.
It's all transparent. The biggest pain in the butt is setting up the virus
checker in the first place. After that, it's just keep your virus database
files current (also pretty much transparent) and go about your business.

I've been dinking around with computers since a Vic-20 was state of the art
and I have never had a virus. Never, ever, ever. Actually, I should say
I've never had a virus get past the protection I've had in place.

I will grant that way too many people leave themselves WIDE open, but that
is their problem and not mine. My system is protected to a reasonable level
I believe, so it matters not how much of a mess theirs is. Their junk is
stopped at my front door. If your system is reasonably protected, any junk
you might get should be stopped at your front door as well, without it
having to be a pain in the butt. If it's a pain, you're doing something
wrong Mike.

Re: FS: M-416 Tent/Trailer combo. Ohio
 

Quality virus protection is virtually invisible to the user. You might
reconsider the 'virus protection' you are using because it sounds
exceedingly poor or outdated. What's on another's computer should not be
a concern when you are properly protected.

That being said perhaps it might be better if you posted your pix on one of
the free services like Sony's www.imagestation.com which is the popular one
with this group or www.shutterfly.com, or one of the many others.
