Christine - Thanks so much for the advice to try the Grisoft Anti-Virus program. As you can see from the bottom of this note, we did so last week and it has come in handy already. Yesterday a posting I made to this list was returned to me from a person named William Meek with a note to see the attachment - the attachment turned out to be a virus which was caught by the program. Regards, Diane ------- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com). Version 6.0.250/Virus Databse: 123 - Release Date 4/18/01
