Thanks for telling me.  Where exactly are you?  I notice you are
in Fidonet Zone 3 and I am in Zone 1 here in the U.S.  I thought
maybe the virus writers were stoned or uneducated, but I guess
I was wrong.  But someone must have gotten hold of the virus and
changed the dialect of the language then, since the more recent
variants spell it our way.
  Later,
     Betty
