Hmmm, I do not believe I have ever had a false positive except in the way that my mail client handles it what it gets from the server. Hmmmmmm then again, would you consider a false negative in this? ;-) So, what do we need to do then, open a statistical false positive thread w/o going way overboard? - rh -- Robert - Abba Communications Computer & Internet Services (509) 624-7159 - www.abbacomm.net
