MIDI Music Lapses
By John A. Tuttle

Hi all,  My thanks to Bill Luecht for his information about Spyware at
Lavasoft.  My computer has been plagued with delays, unwanted pop-ups,
and browser windows that open for no apparent reason.

After installing the free Spyware from Lavasoft, the program found 68
files that were 'infected'.  Of the 68 files, 13 were located in the
Registry.  Now that all of those files have been 'Quarantined', the
mouse delays, pop-ups, and self-opening browser windows have stopped.

What I find most confusing about the people who send out such files is
that they are damaging the very venue that they hope to utilize to make
money.  In essence, they are "Cutting off their own nose to spite their
face".

Musically,

John A. Tuttle
