      Hi! Alexander,              On Wed, 09 Apr 14, you wrote to me:               ak> Well, may be. Last computers are, maybe, fast enough for modern        ak> anti-viruses. Although, there exist many anti-viruses. Some of them        ak> can demand little system resources for working, and vice versa.        ak> Probably the joke is rather old. ;-)              :)               ak> If I were an honest anti-virus maker I would make my anti-virus tell        ak> the results of its work. For instance, "today I saved you from these        ak> viruses". Or "for the last month I've worked in vain." ;)              It would be nice, yes. I'm continually fascinated by the one I have installed       on my wife's computer. It constantly provides 'update' notification pop-ups,       following an update of its virus signature file thingies, accompanied by an       audio sample of a lady telling me/us that the update had been done. Quite       nice, and it's close to what you were interested in. It also keeps track of       any updates required for system software as well, such as the Adobe Flash       player.               PQ>> had in mind that there could be other forms of forge-ing. I. e. art        PQ>> forgery or banknote forgery, or jewellery forgery, etc. I had an urge        PQ>> to ask, you see.               ak> So, what should I have said instead of "forging plant" to be        ak> understood well?              No. No correction required, Alexander. I thought there was something new for       me to learn from you, so I just had to ask lest I miss the opportunity. Thank       you.              Cheers,       Paul.              ...
