"With Norton AntiVirus 2002, click on Options, click on Email on the left-hand side, and select the option "Repair then silently quarantine if unsuccessful" under "How to Respond when a Virus is Found"."

Seems like I tried that once before but I've just done that procedure again to see if it will work this time.

Fortunately, I'm using Forte Agent 1.9 for email (it's a fab news / Usenet reader but it also does mail really well and is IMPERVIOUS to virii, and I've got Zone Alarm going, too.

Dittos. The only virii that my ISP's mail server's scanning didn't nail, Norton did.

You probably already know this, but here goes anyway. Just using Agent won't protect you from viruses and such aimed at Outlook. I learned that the hard way. As long as you have OE on your computer, whether you use it or not, they will attack it if possible, or anything else you have on your drive whether you actually use it or not. Using Agent for mail does not mean OE cannot be attacked.
