Same here - no alerts. Sam - what anti-virus software are you using and =
what virii are being reported? I use Sophos (aimed more at the =
enterprise than the individual). It's one of the top-rated anti-virus =
products in the world. I keep my identity files current, and I haven't =
seen anything. Is it possible you could be seeing false alarms?

      "The harm done by some priests and religious to the young
      and vulnerable fills us all with a deep sense of sadness and
      shame. But think of the vast majority of dedicated and
      generous priests and religious whose only wish is to serve
      and do good."

      --
      (Mumf note: I 'love' this next one -- all of the memories of
      the 50's and early 60's! remember when racism was
      acceptable, as was segregation? or when women knew their
      place and didn't dare venture from the home -- even if it
      was an abusive one? or how you had to stay in the closet if
      you were not heterosexual? I could go on but I think you get
      my drift -- these memories are for white, straight,
      middle-class and up males; bullshit, I say; I mean, if it
      was such a great time, why the fuck did this generation
      raise a generation that has so many problems? I guess they
      were to busy "remembering" and not paying much attention!)

      REMEMBER....
      When the worst thing you could do at school was smoke in the
      bathrooms, flunk a test or chew gum. And the banquets were
      in the cafeteria and we danced to a juke box later, and all
      the girls wore fluffy pastel gowns and the boys wore suits
      for the first time and we were allowed to stay out till 12
      p.m.

      When a '57 Chevy was everyone's dream car. . . to cruise,
      peel out, lay rubber and watch drag races, and people went
      steady and girls wore a class ring with an inch of wrapped
      dental floss or yarn coated with pastel frost nail polish so
      it would fit her finger.

      And no one ever asked where the car keys were 'cause they
      were always in the car, in the ignition, and the doors were
      never locked. And you got in big trouble if you accidentally
      locked the doors at home, since no one ever had a key.

      Remember lying on your back on the grass with your friends
      and saying things like "That cloud looks like a..."

      And playing baseball with no adults to help kids with the
      rules of the game. Back then, baseball was not a
      psychological group learning experience-it was a game.

      Remember when stuff from the store came without safety caps
      and hermetic seals 'cause no one had yet tried to poison a
      perfect stranger.

      And... with all our progress... don't you just wish... just
      once... you could slip back in time and savor the slower
      pace... and share it with the children of the 80's and 90's
      ...

      So send this on to someone who can still remember Nancy
      Drew, The Hardy Boys, Laurel & Hardy, Howdy Doody and The
      Peanut Gallery, The Lone Ranger, The Shadow Knows, Nellie
      Belle, Roy and Dale, Trigger and Buttermilk as well as the
      sound of a real mower on Saturday morning, and summers
      filled with bike rides, playing in cowboy land, baseball
      games, bowling and visits to the pool...and eating Kool-Aid
      powder with sugar.

      When being sent to the principal's office was nothing
      compared to the fate that awaited a misbehaving student at
      home.

      Basically, we were in fear for our lives, but it wasn't
      because of drive by shootings, drugs, gangs, etc.

      Our parents and grandparents were a much bigger threat!

      But we all survived because their love was greater than the
      threat. Didn't that feel good, just to go back and say,
      Yeah, I remember that! And was it really that long ago?

      I come for visit, get treated regal,
      So I stay, who care I illegal?

      I cross border, poor and broke,
      Take bus, see employment folk.

      Nice man treat me good in there,
      Say I need to see welfare.

      Welfare say, "You come no more,
      We send cash right to your door."

      Welfare checks, they make you wealthy,
      Medicaid it keep you healthy!

      By and by, I got plenty money,
      Thanks to you, American dummy.

      Write to friends in motherland,
      Tell them come as fast as you can.

      They come in rags and Chebby trucks,
      I buy big house with welfare bucks.

      They come here, we live together,
      More welfare checks, it gets better!

      Fourteen families they moving in,
      But neighbor's patience wearing thin.

      Finally, white guy moves away,
      Now I buy his house, and then I say,

      "Find more aliens for house to rent."
      And in the yard I put a tent.

      Send for family (they just trash),
      But they, too, draw the welfare cash!

      Everything is mucho good,
      And soon we own the neighborhood.

      We have hobby--it's called breeding,
      Welfare pay for baby feeding.

      Kids need dentist? Wife need pills?
      We get free! We got no bills!

      American crazy! He pay all year,
      To keep welfare running here.

      We think America darn good place!
      Too darn good for the white man race.

      If they no like us, they can go,
      Got lots of room in Mexico.

      In 1963, English comedian Graham Chapman (1941-1989)
      graduated from Emmanuel College at Cambridge University and
      became a practicing surgeon at St. Bartholomew's Hospital in
      London. Simultaneously, he indulged his love for comedy by
      performing with the Cambridge Comedy Circus troupe. After
      receiving an offer to tour with the troupe in New Zealand,
      Chapman struggled to make a decision, knowing that accepting
      the offer would likely mean the end of his medical career.
      In a twist of fate, the Queen of England helped him make the
      decision.

      The Queen dropped in to have tea with the hospital staff,
      and, while there, struck up a brief discussion with Chapman.
      He told her about his offer to tour and explained his
      reservations, and after considering both sides, the Queen
      advised Chapman to go to New Zealand and take the
      sabbatical. "Beautiful place," she claimed. "You must go."
      The suggestion would help launch Chapman's rapid rise to
      international stardom.

      After the tour, Chapman went on to become one of the
      founding members of Monty Python's Flying Circus, a BBC
      comedy program formed in 1969 that ran until 1974. Chapman,
      openly homosexual, (Mumf note: this I did NOT know -- I
      thought that behaviour was "simply being British") brought
      to the show skits filled with camp and cross-dressing, as
      well as his love for playing authority figures.

      Chapman never put the medical world entirely behind him,
      however. He played a doctor in the 1969 British television
      series, Doctor in the House, and again in the 1971 follow-up
      situation comedy, Doctor at Large. In the 1983 movie The
      Meaning of Life, Chapman played a field doctor who pokes at
      the amputations of a soldier with the mouthpiece of his
      pipe, diagnosing the victim's injuries as simple "flesh
      wounds."

      As for Chapman's gratitude to the Queen, he frequently paid
      tribute to her in his own special way--by dressing in gown
      and tiara and doing impressions of her in a falsetto voice
      on Flying Circus.

      INGENUITY

      Never tell people
      how to do things.
      Tell hem what to do,
      and they will surprise you
      with their ingenuity.

           - General George S. Patton, Jr.
