Not that I'm trying to raise suspicians but I'm very curious about who sent the email to you. And also does the name on the email match up with the email address that you know that person to have? In other words, was it someone useing that persons name but actually sending the email from a different address in some odd attempt to mess up your computer. _And_, was this a file you asked for? Did you know that this file was going to be arriving at your email? BTW, your program Eugen is a very good program, it plays a great game, very strong. Thanks for putting it out, I'd like to see version 7.6 available at more download locations. Pete
