I have a laptop with Windows 7 on it and when I downloaded Open Office
it told me it was a virus.  Then, the AV software I had on there kept
identifying it as a virus.  It is outrageous that they could do that,
but I assume it has something to do with M$'s opposition to competition.
At any rate, is Sambhu Banerjee using Windows 7? or, some other version?
Thank you!
