    So far navigation-l and are working properly.
    There must be a glitch somewhere in the internet system.

    Virus: The listserv will not send list members any request for information
    or
    notices of errors. Those come to me. So I would not OPEN any messages
    disguised as comming from the server and requesting personal information.

    Why all the sudden panic?
