McAfee VirusScan 6 Bug
Hi All;
I just found a real nasty bug in VirusScan 6
The Bug involves Windows XP (no Flames!!!)
This bug if you do not install the patch
from McAfee will delete all your e-mail
I lost 3 years of mail archives due to the bug.
There is a warning on there website but
I purchased this software from a local store
so I had no idea until I opened up my e-mail
program and no e-mails.
Yes it was Outlook Express 6.
Do not open OE until you apply the patch
otherwise your TOAST!!!
The links for the patch is as follows
http://www.bagpipes.net/files/virus/CR7560.exe
If you cannot find it on the McAfee Site...
I hope my fun and games keeps others from the same problem.
