   You assume it had a virus because VINCE told you so, taking his word over    
   mine... I'm the author. Its my code. It comes straight from my system.   
      
   Do you really think I would publish something that has a virus, knowing full   
   well what would happen to not only the users but to naysayers having their day   
   crucifying me on the cross over it. That is why I asked if you really think I    
   would let that happen and if you think I'm that stupid.   
      
   Again - Why is it that BinkD fails the Avira test on virustotal.com and its    
   okay to have those on your system, Wilfred's Fmail tosser failed a virus check   
   at one time, no flack given to him, but mine for some reason irks your chain.   
      
   What does it say about Clam AV that many Enterprise-grade security software   
   passes my files with flying colors but that precious little program cannot?   
      
   This is not an ego-thing. This is a common sense thing. You chose not to deal    
   with the publisher, you chose to rely on someone else that IT HAS A VIRUS.   
      
   Only when ***I** pointed this out to you did you change your tune. You did not   
   use common sense as a system administrator of a major mail system.
