Thats a common misunderstanding I hear.
You never KNOW everything is in order anyway. You never know if a box is
trojanned with 100% certainty regardless of the past history (and the
current quoted [gu]estimate for windows boxes is 2-5% at any given time
so a lot of people clearly don't notice).
It comes down to making an informed risk assessment.
