Sure . . . until they flip the switch that turns it into a spam zombie. <div>

Yes, I know . But anyone can say the same, anytime with any virus protection. So, all we can do is keep the virus software updated and hope for the best. My experience, though from the year that I have been using it is that it has virtually caught everything in the past. I have no reason so far to believe it won't catch viruses in the future.

True enough. If I have any reason for suspicion, I will run a 2nd and sometimes 3rd anti-malware program just to be safe. Something like spybot S&D.
