Sorry everyone - time to end this thread as it is not Devon specific and
relates more to computer issues than genealogy. I'm posting part of the
guidelines for posting to the list; a complete description is available at
http://genuki.cs.ncl.ac.uk/DEV/DevonFAQ.html#MESSAGES:
Please refrain from postings which are not of relevance to Devon genealogy -
such as messages concerned with genealogical software packages. In
particular, do not post messages about computer viruses to the list. (Anyone
ignoring this rule is liable to be automatically unsubscribed.)

Thanks,
Regards,

Deborah O'Brien
