Yep .. matter of fact that is. And come 1 January I will no longer be a

dial-upper .. getting the high speed hookup on my street. :-)

Glad I am to not have that problem as my Virus Scan catches 10-12

viruses a day. And the system I have now scans every incoming mail

and outgoing mail .. and even those I zap using Mail Washer. ;-)

Good point Ien .. and another point I have made often on this

and other lists is .. don't get upset if someone does not get

back with you on a post .. odds are they didn't get it in the

first place. Too many Cyber Monsters lurking about and they

are all hungry. And .. as I write this .. my employees in

Maryland are forwarding a half dozen posts to folks from their

server because those servers don't like my server .. and they

are bouncing the e-mails I send.

 

So .. if you get no reply .. might be a good idea to resend the

post .. especially to folks who you know always answer.
