No, unfortunately, I don't. I never had to deal with any of the herpes viruses
myself, fortunately. The other piece of information I have is what's on the top
and bottom of the file I saved:

"Horizon
Thursday, March 25, 1999"

and

"This page was last updated on 11/29/2000 18:41:44
Copyright Nation Newspapers Limited "

Also, the file is named Daily Natiion On the Web. That must have been a title of
a page I saved.

I have another file with the same article, and that's apparently from The Nation
http://www.nation.co.ke/

I hope you'll be able to find something about that. And if you do, please share
what you find.
