Not quite sure on how to answer.  Although I suspect lots of folks don't
realize that the Panda virus protection still has actual support for OS/2,
it does.  So told me you have to carefully huddle with them to do that. As
well. you have to participate in the Windows world for interface to Panda
for Windows too.  The special support for OS/2 special relationships is
synchronized with whatever support you have for Windows.

In my case, as I have ABSOLUTELY kept my word not to ever normally use any
form of Windows software since the masssive over 1,250,000 document US
Federal Court case in the 1970-1980 era and can never have an inbound voice
telephone normal phone line, 'we' still need to do security and whatever
research on certain new and changing telephone telecommunications equipment
for all of us. That wound up being among other things, as for me,
MajicJack.

As well, since we have to go BACKWARDS to dis and dat for the Windows mess,
that still has to be to Windows XP here since MajicJack as well as tons of
other stuff absolutely has to cover Windows XP as well. Let's not get
started on how much banking and other hugely worldly important stuff still
MUST be run on it.  Anyway.

In the case of my work and needs, the Windows interface for everything
absolutely MUST NOT involve Email and cannot at all be involved with any
Email conversation with Panda.  Thus all the communication has to be with
OS/2. but the Windows protection for, say, normal Panda is the now latest
2015 version.  Over some two years of this research work, 'we' have
discovered a really large bunch of Windows virus and malware junk.  The
latest was a major infection issue that involved the update from Panda 2014
to 2015 tools.  I got all that out of the way and was able to eventually
recover the whole WIN XP3 system cleanly from interesting malware issues. 
The test work is working fine now.  However, the standard Panda Email that
comes forward to 'register' the 2015 product appears to be bound to what is
'base64' code which contains data the operator is supposed to read and work
with to use.  But I can't 'visualize' that in OS/2.  As well, for ABSOLUTE
safety I MUST use PLAIN TEXT Email normally and you should NEVER use
Netbios Over TCP-IP driver operations with OS/2 as 'we' discovered more
than 20 years ago.

I have numerous Email tools for OS/2 that I maintain to research this and
that.  But have never moved into the base64 messages in Post Road Mailer,
PolarBar, PMMail and do NOT use any of the Seamonkey stuff for Email at
all.  Yes, some of my daily Email notices for serious economic and world
trouble news and data have now also moved to base64.  However they are not
critical here.  But I need to see what I have to possibly accomodate in
PLAIN TEXT email for going forward security stuff here in OS/2 to help
carry all of us up further in the more and more risky telecommunications
upward swoosh.

It ain't over yet for all us humanity.  But it's getting closer, sadly. As
I heard Charlie sing the first time he ever sang "Vincent" in
public on New Year's Eve of 1968 in Hampton, Iowa;

    Stary, stary night.
      Amber fields on violet haze.
    Painted by the Artist's loving hands.

       ......

    They are not listening still,
      Perhaps they never will.
