Acknowledged, sir Robin. Naturally Latin doesn't have a plural form of "virus" (the Romans were happy). However, "viruses" is the anglicized version and thus appropriate here. In Denmark we use "vira" although I don't know why. Thanks for the correction. Kaj Haulrich. -- *This mail was sent from a 100 % Microsoft free computer*
