Errol in New Zealand informed me that he received a virus with the Newsletter that I sent out.

I have checked my system and It has come up clean, so the virus attached itself to Errol somewhere along the line.

Please ensure that you have a VIRUS CHECKER running on your machine as it could very well infect us all.

Thanks to Errol for passing on this information
