I'm sorry for not answering your question directly, but If you were searching for songs and received an executable. Here's some advice, delete it right now. Also, try getting norton antivirus 2004 or if you can, norton system works 2004 which I have been using for the longest time now. Obviously, I've been upgrading the products as they come along, but I love the norton suite of tools, and have tested it against a host of different viruses and worms; it passed with flying colors for me.

Hi All: Some of my linux experts have told me I don't need to have any anti-virus programs. Reason I am asking is that I am sharing files on Mutella in Linux. While I was looking for Christmas dance music, I ended up with a file, which is an executeable. I don't know its content, but I hope its music. I would feel much better if I could scan it while in Linux before I run it from Jaws in win98. Are their any suggestions or speech friendly Linux virus programs I can run with speakup? Much earlier this year I had alot of trouble with backdoor viruses in windows. Thanks so much in advance Hart _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup at braille.uwo.ca http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup
