Will you say hello to Tina, from me, if you get the chance? How is your FICS rating doing now? Be a little careful with Guard Dog (Not Foxie of course, she's the best dog there is on this planet I'm sure of it!). I read on German ChessBits forum http://www.siteboard.de/cgi-siteboard/archiv.pl?fnr=1277&read=1500 that with older versions of stand-alone McAfee VirusScan, version 4.5, there were problems if you wanted to use Defrag or Scandisk. But this was an older version, if I'm correct Guard Dog has version 5.x at least that's what I read at http://www.mcafee.com/. Not all the features like restricting options for non-administrator users seemed to work very well I read in a Dutch report but I don't know if you need those. I'm sorry, this does not seem to be the best product McAfee ever made. Michael would know more, I believe he is in the computer software business these days? Jeroen van Dorp also has part of his pages devoted to computer security I believe. But the virusscanner should be fine, features against unwanted cookies too, make sure that Windows displays full extensions of files so that you can check e-mail attachments. But you know that.. I don't have Century 3.0 yet, I'm looking forward to it! If Kramnik keeps this up I claim I have won my bet against Tina! Didn't think he could really make it so hard on Kasparov though.. And with his favourite number thirteen I just now see Kasparov only goes for a short draw, fourteen moves as if symbolically saying that Kramnik is already the fourteenth Champion. Let's hope the match isn't totally over already? Best regards to everybody there, Ralph! Eelco
