Great - hope it works out.
Note - posting your valid e-mail address in a newsgroup post, or in your

viruses sent to you....see http://www.mailmsg.com/SPAM_munging.htm for help
in the future, but note that now that your address is out there, there's not
much you can do other than changing your address.
