Oops... for some strange reason I thought I was posting to the moderated group
alt.hackers which requires a "hack" to be put into the post (Note: *NOT* a group
where you will find "31337 d00dZ" looking for "WaReZ"... the definition of a
"Cracker"... whereas alt.hackers follows the traditional definition of hacker-
someone who is good at using computers.) Methinks you can ignore this part
of my post :)...

Now seeking professional help :),
