Short time ago had high speed internet installed, and on turn - on, a virus appeared. ( Magistr. ) Same one you mention. Being as I'm on the list, I suppose it could have been one of our members, but now I have Norton anti virus installed. Hopefully this won't happen again, as I lost much info., including E addresses. Always someone out there who delights in causing problems for people he/she doesn't even know. These are the same kind of people who walk around late at night and break car antennas. Great fun?!??! Too much time on their hands. Should take piano lessons. Would be good for them and us. Theory is, that music study improves the brain, and these people certainly need to improve. Happy New Year!!
