You virus check your posts?

Don't you?

Using a newsreader? Why?

because I can.

It's not the news/mail tool that does the checking.

I use AVG and ZA on mail and the web, plus regular cleans
with ccleaner and adaware. But I don't subscribe to any
binary newsgroups so I never download any attachments via
Agent from the German news-server I use.

How would I be risking a virus on usenet?

You wouldn't. You would need to take a series of irrational steps to
get a virus from usenet, and your news server doesn't even support
attachment.

There are infinitely more ways you are likely to get a virus.

There is a way to get a virus on Usenet: download a binary that is
executable and execute it. Of course, you'd have to be pretty dumb to
do it. By default, my newsreader flags all binary .exe files as
dangerous-do-not-open.

I'm sure plenty of porn-hunting dorks are happy to run
bR1tNeyFUX4U.exe. They get what they deserve.

Hi,
is that why there are more machineguns per person in Finland than in

30000 totally preventable deaths a year.

Less than 2 years of Americans killing each other--of course half of that

Right.

I think we had a similar discussion about mp3s too, didn't we?

Hi,

while technically not virii if you've got java enabled for your
newsreader you can get into nasty loops that'll have you killing the

Hi,

but wait... it didn't really happen.

gun control protected the victims!

in that particular mall the management of the mall had decided that they
would NOT allow legally licensed permit holders to keep and bear arms
inside the mall and had signs posted to that affect (a legal requirement).

so what we have is gun control contributing to another mass murder/suicide.

if the citizenry, that had all already been checked out by the police
been allowed to keep and bear arms there it could have ended a LOT
quicker and with fewer -innocent- casualties.

fewer INNOCENTS would get shot.

and there'd be lower overall incidence of violent crime (at least with
innocent victims, cocaine dealers shooting each other in turf wars is
another matter).

the violent crime rate in the UK is actually HIGHER than in the US.
