Re: Virus in newsgroup dbx?

| My AV founded a virus in some message in the group (or, at least, in this

|
| Generic.Botget.C7C6EB6C.Generic.Botget.ABF6C813
|
| So, after initial quarantining, I had to delete this group dbx and

| All messages are scanned, right?

It is kind of too late now. You could have excluded the DBX file and based upon the LOG
entry, just removed the supposedly malware hosting News Post.
