This quote is from the "Polls" forum, but thought that the pertinent question would be better suited here.

Does NOD32 catch such internet-borne viruses? *Does Wormguard?

octogen,

{QUOTE-> Does NOD32 catch such internet-borne viruses? <-QUOTE}

It depends on a) the configuration from the AMON b) database.

{QUOTE-> Does Wormguard? <-QUOTE}

Although no name has been provided regarding the virus, WG does not handle viruses, but scripts, depending the way it has been configured.

mrBlaze,

{QUOTE-> ..credit card.. <-QUOTE}

that seems to be the critical issue.
