For those of you that deleted the program (cited below), I am going to do whatever I can to obtain a "fix" (meaning, re-install the program) ASAP and I will get it out to all of you as soon as I can. I, too, deleted my program - I accepted the "warning" as genuine and forwarded it to all in my address book. I apologize for whatever inconvience this may have caused you.
