Thanks for the F-Prot news update! Even though I use F-Prot only for
personal use, I paid the (very reasonably) business license fee in
order to support the availability of DOS software. I'm chagrined to
have to discover a F-Prot update from you, rather then from them. I
certainly hope their better at catching viruses than they are at
keeping their customers informed!

Happy holidays to all!


Cordially,
Richard Kanarek
