Hotmail Doesn't Block Sircam

[MrTRiX]

Hey I was surfing around and found out an article that talks about the effects of sircam when @hotmail.com is included.

There is a lot of things that hotmail doesn't stop, or should I say McAfee?;)

Thanx For The Info MrTRix Bro....

So just to be safe when in hotmail you should allways scan your e-mail or e-mail attachments with your av program....

I'm not knocking McAfee. As a stand alone scanner, it works good, but the supposed scanning done on hotmail, well, it leaves a lot to be desired. I've gotten a few viruses that were supposedly scanned and found clean, by hotmail. I don't trust it. If I recieve an attachment in hotmail, it either gets deleted if I don't know the person or I forward it to my other email acct and let Norton take a whack at it!:)
