Why send this to the list and cause even more trouble over something 
that shouldn't have been sent to our list in the first place ?

I'm trying to make a point to someone who's been spamming our list 
with with MS windows issues for a long time.  I'm trying to get him 
and everyone else to understand something.  They paid for support and 
that's the end of it.

I know my viruses the way that you know your own left foot so I've no 
clue why you posted this to our list.
