One of my 'problems' with this approach lies with the "move on to another system". So now they're hitting on *my* systems... ;-) Someone, somewhere has to deal with these creatures and get them caught/slapped in the face/buttkicked. I report whenever I can, which is all I can do, I guess. Plus (back to the original topic), if we both upgrade regularly, whose box is more secure? Yours or mine? :-) Bye... Nico
