OLAFALFERINK  We sold a 10 user license of version 7.7 to one of our customers. A big customer. Now they have a lot of Word Macro Viri. You can save the infected files, move them, mail them, open, save and close them and there isn't a single warning. Nothing, although all automatic detection features a enabled. If you scan those files manually the viri are removed.

Now their support tells me that we should have noticed that their product does not work in the first year after buying it and that they will have to buy a new support contract to get it working.

So now they have an very unhappy customer and a reseller that sold a them product that is simply not working and of course will never sell it again.  (Version 8.6)

IN2NDO  This program. ver. 8.6 made my home folder disappear right after installing it. I had to go into my guest profile.. looked in the users folder and my profile folder was empty. I downloaded the program again and used its uninstaller and my home folder reappear ..... scared me bad.

Before uninstalling I did try a few things from the new profile I had just created.. I couldn't even repair permissions..   (Version 8.6)

TG2  The Virex 8.6 beta application massively crashes illustrator CS3 on 10.4.11. - My Advise, check your crashlog / console regularly and be surprised how much CPU time and Errors this app generates. Incredible that they actually dare to release this as a beta. It should be alfa instead. I've deinstalled virex 8.6 and won't re-use it ever. Next to that, this app slows down my system and becomes a real resource hog when working. I don't understand why this application won't be totally 'invinsible' until I call it to action. There's really no need for Virex to be so hyperactive in an OSX environment.   (Version 8.6)
