Yes, I checked and I have nothing. I realize there's a risk if I
turn off security essentials, but there's also a risk if I leave it
on and just filter schedule information. Fortunately I have dial-up
and that limits my exposure. It's MS's problem and they have much
better information and thus should provide the strategy. I expect
the need to use a filter as you suggest will soon be fixed. There
is however a worrisome point that there's no entry in security
essentials log that they blocked a download problem.
