Yoeri,

No problem. I happened to save a copy for myself also.
Many thanks to James Atkin for sharing that with us (and
to Tim Dwyer for pointing him in the right direction.)

IMNSHO another disgusting example of incomplete-ware. *ANY* attached exe (or
any attached file with an extension considered executable) is automatically
assumed to contain a virus. Totally, absolutely irresponsible. Symantec
should not allow this behavior.
