I use trade manager utility a lot and i am worried that some one may plant a spy bot or a virus in on of their files that they send - like quote or product details. Is it virus protected?
What is the technical advice?

I have moved this topic over to "Talk with Alibaba" Hopefully someone there will be able to answer your question.

Replying to [sivaras]:Trade Manager have virus that is my opinion as I had installed it on many occassion and had to uninstal; since now I have doubts to have it on my system It keep giving problems

Replying to [Tell me why]:
Trade Manager itself cannot have a Virus.
The only way you can get a virus through Trade Manager is that if someone sends you a file via Trade Manager and you accept it, open it, and therefore activate the virus.
I run a very good anti-virus programme, which would stop Trade Manager opening the second it would detect a virus trying to activate.

Replying to [grigo]:Thank you for your comments Please indicate which virus software are you using. We all normally use Symantec

Thanks for you help

Replying to [sivaras]:No the software doesn't contain any virus. but I feel that the startup speed is slow as it is loading in the startup.
but yes! It is not supported by any antivirus as yahoo, rediff and other webmail options have for the attachments.
