Yeah, I guessed so. I guess my guarded question was -- how easy or

Thanks for confirming that. Clifford said it was me, not the
internets. I am sure it is not me, it is the internets. I don't get
malware (did I speak too soon?). PDL web site is doing funky things...
opening up random web pages, giving 404s, giving sf.net's bare docs
page, etc.
