I truly did not mean to offend anyone trying to pass on something useful.
Sorry. I usually react quite negatively to spam and have seen a bunch of y2k
related FUD lately and assumed it was more of the same. Actually it was just
that though I can understand not everyone might know that. I get a bit
defensive toward viruses and FUD aimed toward Windows. Windows 98 crashes
often enough on it's own for various reasons without unfounded ones or
malicious attacks. ;-)
