well, thanks for the opinion and the feedback... and the info, i wasn't
even aware of ANTI_VIRUS... i knew there was one called VIRUS_NFO (not a
miss spelling)... i'll have to check out ANTI_VIRUS and see what's
there...

i'm not sure about closing echoes - the criticism has been made before,
especially about VIRUS and VIRUS_INFO as they're almost completely
identical... generally the rebuttal to that is that not all echoes are
carried in all places... some of us see both because we're lucky...
