More info?)
I don't know anything about any purported virus originating from here,
heirloom.
AV tool here is the usual NAV 2004 Pro with 5/18/2005 signatures today. I
usually get the latest signatures the first thing at any session. I would
expect that my 5/20 post was done using the same signatures as I have now,
5/23. The NAV Activity log shows no recent threats or errors, and the
Quarantine folder has no items.
So I can only surmise that the most probable explanation is that you have a
"false positive" from Avast.
What was the name of the virus suspect?
Re: the absence of two posts from the ng's in the WinME machine. Perhaps
the AV tool, after detecting them as "infected" and unable to repair, simply
deleted them from the ng list. Look for a log entry reporting same.
Your reported disk access speed increase for your RAID 0 vs. a single IDE
ATAPI HD is usual. So you are now smokin' like your chile, eh?
What does PC PitStop report for the new machine?
