RE: Virus Alert!
Don't have the answer to that one, sorry, out of my element. When it comes to computers, I'm a complete ROOKIE. <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
I just copied down what a computer-literate friend sent me for instructions and when I found it also I figured I should post it everywhere to try and help. Good shooting, Pinwheel 12

DO NOT DELETE THIS FILE. IT IS A TRICK!!!!!!!!!1

Big John-
I guess it's no big deal from what I understand, unless you are using some sort of virtual java program. Most people do not, so I'm not going to worry about it. Pinwheel 12
