Or tripped an antivirus program? ...or is it's name your only concern? Rosetta Moderator: Mod.Sense ID: 65465 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Some of the names used for work units here on rosetta are strange, though i am shure they make compleat sence to those who chose them :) ID: 65466 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
