From: Vladimir Ejikhine on 29 Mar 2010 18:29 Dear Twayne Thank you for your suggestion. It is little you can do, however, in WSC itself. The plain text says that WSC has not found any anti-virus software in my PC. (very surprising !) Further WSC explains what a purpose of anti-virus programs is and how it is important to secure my PC. (very helpful.) There is also an option to switch off the whole thing. So, no solution.
