I do have the package, but I also would like to know how this works! The manual didn't answer many questions: 1) Suppose I have Shield installed, then create a new partition. Is the new partition protected by Shield, or must I install it into the new partition myself? 2) Does moving a file across partitions interfere in any way with Shield? In this case does Shield make two copies of whatever info it keeps per file? 3) Using the volume anti-virus protection of Guardian, do I still need Vaccine 1.0? That is, do these programs provide duplicate or complimentry protection? Do they interfere with each other? 4) Since I received my copy of SUM after the fixes were posted to the net, do I need the fixes? How can you tell which version you have (since the version number is the same in all versions, which is very silly of symantec in my opinion)? Is there more than one update to SUM available? 5) How many roads must a man walk down?
