HiHi A 'Just in case', Monte has already reiterated my warning re files possibly not being safe when using a Hotmail account. But so everybody has an idea what, "Can" happen, below is a C&P of part of the orriginal warning I posted; personal opinion but untill WCS (as has already been suggested), puts some form of encryption on the .sve files it may be wiser to not use an open account and send your files direct to Spain, your call. However that’s not the issue I was raising, that concerns open text sometimes carried in Merged files which can include details of Secret treaties etc. It may well be that this is occurring because of the damaged files Dave had probs with in our ‘No Frills’ game, dunno thats techno stuff and outside my area of knowledge, I only noticed it because, prompted by your Role-play claim on the ‘No Frills’ MB that france had been supplied details of a Secret treaty by another European power, I wondered if I hadn’t inadvertently left incriminating evidence in an email to someone who shouldn’t have been party to the deal; to cut a long story short I did a ‘Search’ in my email programme based on £300, the sum involved, and started backtracking, and what I noticed was that T30 showed details while T29 did not Here’s a C&P of what I noticed using the ‘Search’ engine. drconn@aol.com Turn 31 Mon 07 Sep, 2009 Inbox ... is located in W._Mediterranean.

Once again, I selected "no". In the future, it you do want to do a strategic withdrawal when hostilities end, please let me know. I know that may require some anticipation, but that is probably the most efficient way to do it. --Dave Here’s what shows for T29. drconn@aol.com Turn 29 Thu 03 Sep, 2009 Inbox ... 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 542 542 0 15 15 3 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 31 0 0 0 1 0 0 16 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 noname 547 0 22 ^_3000^_ 4.05 ^_3000^_ 4.05 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 55 0 55 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 542 542 0 15 ...

All the Best Peter
