I'm not sure entirely what you mean. If you mean, "Can the Qube be 
configured to scan incoming email for viruses before the messages are read 
on security-risk Windows machines?" then the answer is "Yes, there are 
several ways to do this."

If the question is, "Can my Qube be an impermeable virus block to prevent 
any virus from reaching my Windows clients?" then the answer is No, 
because it can be defeated by a virus on a floppy disk. (Are floppies 
still vectors? Are there any viruses still spreading without the net? I'm 
curious.) Or, a user can still go to a website and download an infected 
file without the Qube scanning it.

I believe yes to all, but I don't know the numbers. Try checking the Qube'
s documentation.
