Re: Antivirus Programs

Paul,

I wasn't being rude as you seem to be in your reply :) but I don't
understand how a virus contained in your VM can access all the people
in your Mac Address Book and email itself to everyone? The way I
understand it the VM is a separate "entity" if you like, self
contained. Obviously having addresses in your address book in windows
on your VM may be vulnerable without AV software, but I don't see why
you would bother to duplicate information in that way. I never access
email in XP on my VM and I certainly don't store any personal
information including addresses there either. I just don't see the
point.

For me VPC is only a tool to test my website on under a windows
platform. I wouldn't install Office or use email there, that would be
pointless really.
