I suspect then that you're O/S genuinely isn't supported in the os.dat file, and hence you would (still) get an email message. What O/S are you using? If you are using a bash shell, then try downloading the hashupd.sh file from the sourceforge web site and running that. It will update your local os.dat file with your O/S and file hashes.
