I was listening to a pc/digital radio talk show and the host suggested installing a link scanner. I ran a Google search to define what a link scanner is and from I read it's similar to Site Advisor. I already have that application. What I thought a link scanner function does is scan links sent in emails, but that might not be accurate. Just what does a link scanner do?
The second question I have is if NIS scans emails for viruses, does it scan links sent in emails? Especially those "forwards" from friends.
