Well, I have my limits, and I'm not willing to drop my security just to get an online virus scan. I'm at stealth level, but the two sites I visited want me to drop my level of security so they can peep inside my compyutere. Does this make any sense?

With no security, anyone is bound to pick up some type of virus within a very short time, and I suppose the online scanners will be happy to report that a virus has been found. However, it makes better sense to me to remain at stealth level, and avoid picking up a virus, thus bypassing the need to abandon good security just to get an online virus scan.

No doubt I will probably receive a lesson from someone about this...
