Have you ever gone to Norton to download a file and get a
pop-up? Download a print driver, how about checking your
mail through IMAPI and get a pop-up. How about mis-type
Microsoft and see where it brings you. I don't care to NOT
use the functionality of the browser to do my daily work
and with todays technology people are clever - so as an
extra precaution I thought I'd run SpyBot if it helps
remove anything that may have found it's way on my server
while working. I monitor every port and know whats
connected, but I've had great success with SpyBot on
workstations and just thought I'd see if anyone has used
it on SBS. Something else, I get new clients all the time
that I don't know the history of the server, who went
where and so on, it would be nice to run Spy Bot in this
case.
