Kev, I have got a few messages from you over the last couple days that appear to be viruses. I haven't opened them or anything but they have attachments and the wording reeks of a virus. You may want to check your machines. I have deleted them but if I get another one I will try and find a way to communicate the problem further to you.

Some simply choose to forfeit it. People who write viruses deserve jail. People who run Windows (especially with it's default settings) deserve viruses.
