Mihaly,

I understand.  Just FYI, I used "harsh" in this sense because it appeared that
you had assumed that it was "definitely" comomg from his computer  -- whereas in
reality his email address may simply been spoofed and the e-mails you rec'd has
nothing to with his computer.  A softer touch would been have along the lines,
"You might want to check your computer" as opposed to "Please clean up your
computer"

Best,

Michael
