Hey Steve You are right there; it seems that Ebola is looking way more serious since I last went in early August, and the companies I am working for in Gabon have are very aware of this and are monitoring on a daily basis.
Ronni thanks very much for your email again putting my mind at rest re viruses on macs! At this moment I am still running 10.6.8 on my MBPro (Mavericks on my new imac) so I will not install AVG on it. Im very glad that I actually thought to ask WAMUG before I was going to install it this morning!! I think I did download your support document on installing Mavericks on my MBPro so will follow that when I have time to do the download. I guess I should use the Combo download?
