RE: disclaimer

We include a virus protection clause in all our vendor contracts.  It
basically states that the Vendor has taken reasonable steps to make sure
there are no viruses in their systems.

Most agree to the term.

Subject: disclaimer

Though a little off-topic, the e-mail disclaimer below might interesting
for readers of this list.  It is not from a law firm!  See especially
second paragraph about viruses; are any e-resource vendors making these
kinds of disclaimers about their content?
