| Due to the unsafe design of some email programs, email viruses now are able to infect
computer systems just by email. Once infected, a computer system can spread the virus
further by sending malicious emails to other systems without any human interference. Well
designed email programs do not display these vulnerabilities. Unfortunately, commercial
success is not related to good design...
Virus scanners (please see above) can offer good protection against email viruses by scanning
each incoming mail, but will never protect against 100% of all attacks, since it is impossible to
know and detect each and every possible type of virus.
Therefore, even when you have a real-time virus scanner, it is wise to get some information
on the vulnerabilities and strengths of your email program. The GFI site tests your email
program by sending you number of emails that probe your mail system. |

| This very useful freeware program enables you to delete virus emails and spams directly on
the mail server before download. This not only saves costs and time, but also reduces the risk
of virus infection. |
