No. He's a genetically engineered simulation.

That would be Dr. Solomon's Software Limited (formerly S&S, also

He only gives away his socks. Visit the Virus Bulletin Conference next
year and perhaps he will do it again.

Well, you may have taken a wrong turn at alt.humor, but you're
probably in the right place. ;-)

;-) But of course. Either way, he's the real Dr. Alan Solomon. Some
people have claimed that he doesn't exist, though. See his web page
for more details (his personal one, not the DSSL one).

Ernst seems to be a Sophos fan. Sophos is a good product. But, IMHO,
there is no such thing as a "best" product.
My definition of best is : detects all viruses in the wild or likely to
be and is troublefree for the user.
There are a lot of a-v that can make and support claim one. Claim two is
a moving target, no a-v can claim to be trouble free on every system on
earth : therefore, there is no such thing as a best a-v.

There Ain't No Such Thing as a Free Lunch
The origin of this is definitely Robert A. Heinlien, the
deceased Sci Fi writer (best known for _Stranger in a
Strange Land_). I believe it was the character Lazarus Long
that coined this phrase (as an acronym, at least), probably
in _Time Enough for Love_.

Calcetines, o medias cortas, en Venezuela. The company distributes
lots of clean, new socks, specially made with the company logo, to
customers as a promotional/advertising item.
....image of Dr. Solomon and members of the DSS staff taking the socks
off their feet at business events and offering them as a gift to
potential customers fades away...

Richard,
Everything you say above is correct.
So what?

Definitely off topic, but...
It is not correct...It was coined by Heinlein, but it appeared in _The Moon Is
a Harsh Mistress_ which was published in book form in 1966. _Time Enough For
Love_ did not get published until 1973. I don't know if that was the first
time he wrote it, but it definitely pre-dated _Time Enough For Love_
