She is very paranoied about running her virus scanner to scan the entire hd at startup, but she doesn't think that keeping her virus definitions is that important. > > She also believes myths such as the one that mp3s could be infected by a virus. Does anyone know of a web resource out there that could clear up a lot of theese myths in plain English?
