David, I included in my post the reply by Peacekeeper saying that he would post to the McAfee forum. That's what I was referring to. His headers show that he restricted his reply to alt.comp.anti-virus. However, this thread seems to be no longer present in that NG, at least in one alternate newserver that I checked. C. Nerd
