That is most likely not possible since java has its sandbox. ------------------ I wish there was a button on my monitor to turn up the intellegince. Theres a button called 'brightness' but it doesn't work
Well what i want peter is to check a attachment for virus and display the result as you see in hotmail or any other mail service. Hope this time i am clear thanks for your reply satish
Hi satish, well if u r using windows as your os u may be able to scan the viruses. if your antivirus supports command line parameters u may be able to scan the files using some io streams. check whether your antivirus allows you to scan files through command line parameters or not. also for information if u don't know u can get the startup filename by opening your start menu through the browser. right click the shortcut and see properties. there u will be able to get the path and main filename that should be given to start the antivirus program. if your antivirus supports command line parameters give path and name of your file as a parameter. if this does'nt help u contact your anti virus vendor.
