George, I deeply appreciate your understanding and support on this. You
know, as do so many others of Jims wonderful site and his unflagging
devotion to helping others. I should have realized that the links URL might
have had "suspicious connotations" for those who lack that familiarity
however. By the same token, who the heck would try to spread a virus with a
link that said get virus download here? :-D

I would never knowingly -or in anyway- do such a thing as that of which I
was accused. The fact is, that I only have respect and regards of the
highest order for the MS newsgroups and those that come or "work" here. It
is also my feeling to try to help as much as I have been helped; *and* I
have been helped in so many ways by so many people both "known" (at this
point) and unknown. Sharing is the right thing to do.

I would just like to say in my own defense that being accused of
distributing viruses is a very serious matter, not to be taken lightly.

Again, I appreciate your kindness and your having stood behind me in
this.<S>

Best Regards,
