Re: DBUG> giving up on BitDefender

[David Bergman <bergman@cyberg.com>]

Why, oh why it never easy? NOD32 apparently doesn't scan Eudora 
mailboxes (though I read that it does scan incoming POP email, so I'm 
not sure what to make of that). Kaspersky demanded that I uninstall 
Zonealarm, even though I was only installing their antivirus. So for 
the moment, I've just installed the free AVG, though it gets only 
so-so ratings.
