Hi Gene :) *chuckle* I wrote Tim off-list, because I thought it became OT for the OT thread. This reminds me, that I need to reply to some mails off-list to you too, sorry, I've got issues with antihypertensive drugs and less time at the moment and by the way, the side effects did effect my psyche, anyway, I didn't notice to be paranoid ;D, perhaps this will change, when reading more posts for this thread. Is it proved that there is a back door for versions ex 2.6.2a? Cheers!
