Don't be too hard on Sir Tim - he had a great idea and gave it to the world, free of charge. Bill is quite the opposite, but even he isn't responsible for the presence of malicious and anti-social individuals on the net. Businesses and governments are targeted every day, and spend an awful lot of money to protect themselves, sometimes with limited success. -- Andy Greener n.b.
