Our Listserv also received a single file from [log in to unmask] This file, named COM FILE, consisted of 32 'LIST LONG' commands. Fortunately, I was updating the BITEARN NODES when it arrived and transferred it out of the server's reader. Had it been processed, it would have caused a significant load on both the server as well as the net. The user has been served off. This kind of network behavior is truly unworthy of any network user. Juan /-----------------------------------------------------------------------\ Juan M.
