I do not have any problems with viruses from RAS, it must be your local news
server.. do you not run an anti virus software on your MS Outlook? Norton
does it very well. I am normally told when Dr. Norton finds something, but
they have never flagged a news group virus.

Some month ago, I did delete r.a.s. from my list of subscribed newsgroups
when I got a post with a virus attached. A month later (now) discovering few
threads regarding Jantar I thought: "Maybe it was one-off infected posting".
After TWO DAYS of my presence at r.a.s. forum, I have found a next "security
patch" post with an attachment (this time I was very carefully moving my
mouse to not to click accidentally as I had done it previously). Again.
What is going on with this newsgroup?! Do I have to give it a go definitely?
:-/

Anyone knows the way to force the Outlook Express to not to download any
posts with binary file attached from the news server?

Regards,
