that came through iris-talk. It totally crashed yesterday morning even
though I "did not" open the email or attachment and deleted it as I've been
told to do. According to my local computer guru, you not only have to
delete the file, but immediately send it to the recycle bin as well for
total deletion. This will insure that it has been completely deleted.
Also, please note that according to Norton Utilities, as of yesterday Pretty
Park has not been added to their list of viruses (worms). They, too, were
obviously caught by surprise.

hope that John Jones (I'd email you directly John, but I no longer have your
address in my address book) has taken all measures to remove and block this
person's email address from the list.

been pleasant. I wish all of you better luck.
