      I'm in the process of recovering and identifying a virus that got into my system in the last 24 hours. I suspect it has something to do with the Digital Signature I installed in the the Inventory workbook. I won't know that for sure until I've finished scanning my hard drive for virus (2 found so far
      I recommend that you delete all of the attachments to my Release 2 email if you have downloaded them and run a virus scan if you've opened them. They may not be the culprit, but better safe than sorry.

      Thanks for the timely warning, John. I was just about to dive in. Instead, I’ve deleted the attachments you sent and will wait for the next round.

      Thanks again for this great program!

      Tor,
      I've finished the virus scan and nothing showed up in the those files, but 3 viruses were found. I still think it is prudent not to have opened those files and done a virus scan if you have.
      I'll be doing some very cautious testing for a few more days before I do any more releases.

      John,

      I did not open the attachments because I read your warning before I got to them. Looking forward to your next release, whenever you decide it’s ready.

      Thanks John. You are a champ for doing all this for the group and your
      work is greatly appreciated. Offline, let’s discuss the certificate
      process if you really think that was the source of the viruses.
