I guess if you don't use it then you know vunerable you are, and are more likely to practice safe hex. Looks like you may have a point! You could save time (if not using it) by not updating it. Ant |

No assumptions made at all. Seems you missed the light hearted tone of my post, and resorted to insults. Shame, because there was also a serious point to it.

Now you restate your point, but note; the wording is subtley different. |

There was a light hearted tone in your post? Oh, I'm terribly sorry. I must have confused it with a smartarse comment from someone who perhaps should know better, but hey, whatever floats your boat. But once again, you clearly have no comprehension of what I actually said, and yes, you did allude to things that weren't mentioned, but I guess that's all beside the point (at least according to you). Afterall, it was just a light hearted post, with a serious point to it. Or so you say. > [snip] > > > So, to put this in simple terms (especially for you Ant), you should > > use anti-virus software, and more importantly, you should also keep it > > up-to-date. > > Now you restate your point, but note; the wording is subtley different. Restate my point? If you actually read my reply, you'd understand that the above was merely an explanation, in simple terms (just for you) of what I'd initially said. But I guess that's well above your head as well. Oh well, I think you've proved the question I asked in the last post. Cheers, Dazz |

Geez, I at least hope that's a compliment, seeing as he's regarded as one of the best comedians that the UK has ever produced. >> But once again, you clearly have no comprehension of what I actually >> said, [snip] > >I understood perfectly, you misunderstood me, but nevermind. Well, let's just agree that it was a misunderstanding. No hard feelings, and I'll even apologise for some of my comments. Cheers, Dazz |

No worries, as they say in your wonderful country (from which I have recently returned). |
