My comany, quite rightly are a wee bit concerned that we don't get any viruses etc on our new Panasonic Toughbooks, but one of the things I would like to do is use it to send technical digital pics back to Head Office without having to use my own PC.

Probably a silly question, but would it be possible if a digi camera was plugged into a 'infected' computer that the extra memory compact flash/SD card could become infected, therby potentially infecting a 'clean' PC when connected up via USB and pics downloaded?

And if this WAS possible, would the use of a digi camera with built in memory and NO memory card prevent this?

Many thanks

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
