In my previous e-mail, I posted the amount of charge given by GROMACS:

Also, I run the system without multiplication, and it runs fine without any
notes on the presence of a net charge!!! But, as soon as it is multiplied,
then it gives notes of net charge!

Define "non-zero."  Is it at least an integer?  Should your system bet net 
neutral at this stage in your system preparation?
