I found that AVG programme from Grisoft had failed a test by PC Magazine. It did not detect 6 types and wrongly rejected 7 others which were not virus carriers. That was performed on the Professional version so I do not think that the free version will be better. Norton 2002 detected all correctly, so maybe I will see if I can scrape up the cash to get a copy. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com). Version: 6.0.365 / Virus Database: 202 - Release Date: 24/05/02

Well - Mailwasher also detects viruses and even if it doesn't you can read the mail before it enters your box.
