RE: [MacPerl] Booking System



I agree, too, I stopped my download and turned on skip big messages when I
saw it coming (I am at home on a sloooow connection). It is also a little
unsettling to get unknown executables of any kind, I imagine most folks (me
included) would just trash them as fast as possible, I wouldn't want to run
an unknown app, you just never know what someone might be up to! (no
offense) - Pris
