Just received this mail. Guess what ? It works ! : (

You have just received the "Polish Virus"!!! As we don't have a lot of
programming experience, this virus works on the honor system.
Please delete all the files on your hard drive, then manually forward
this virus to everyone on your mailing list. Thanks for your cooperation.

I did not mean that as a reprimand. There was nothing wrong with you posting it here. Some people do not cross-pollinate between forums and humour benefits everybody. :)

Cheers to you.
