  8. hi all some thing has me worried i recieved an email through thunderbird from a good source, from an address i normally trust. and when i scanned with adaware it picked up a win32 trojon now in outlook express i have my sys to isolate these sorts of emails is there an option in thunderbird to spot these sorts of malware or is it hit or miss i installed thunderbird to get rid of the spam but i dont seem to be winning which is best spam or trojon by the way how long has adaware had this trojon scanner thank god for it marty
