Connected or Not?

I was interviewing a candidate for a sales position and I told him the job required a good home Internet connection, as the sales leads would have to be inserted in the company's system everyday. He said his connection was great and that would be no problem -- only to apologize minutes later for not having been able to answer an email quickly because his computer had a virus or something like that. I still don´t know whether he´d be able to go online everyday or not, but I surely did not want to risk infection and hired someone else. TJNTIY.
