I personally wished that "Good Times" wasn't a hoax so I could forward it to Dragon and laugh at its pathetic attempts at reformatting anything. ;) And for those who didn't know, programs can't run themselves just by opening them (unless you have a really brain-damaged e-mail program that automatically runs every single attachment you receive.). And for those who hail assembler as the almighty language to do anything you want with a virus/trojan horse...they don't call it 'protected mode' for nothing. (Hence, no Unix viruses/virii that do damage without a stupid administrator, aka Bliss.) -George
