My newsfeed hasn't yet received Michael's reply, so I'm forced to
respond indirectly here. I never meant to disparage Michael at all. In
fact I was genuinely puzzled by his request. Why would he want me to
deliver the data to his e-mailbox when I had already made it available
to all via my own website? The URL was in plain view in the same post.
I assumed he was "taking the piss" because of my recent experience in
a current thread entitled "IC TC5504P". In this other thread it was
suggested that ZIPs were an insecure file format which would be
rejected by some recipients. I thought that Michael's post may have
been a sarcastic reference to this prior discussion. It didn't make
sense otherwise, unless he had genuinely overlooked my URL.
Please accept my sincere apology for any misunderstanding on my part.

Frank, when I first read the message it wasn't all displayed because
I didn't see a link for the file. My computer froze when I replied to
the message, and it wasn't till after I sent the second reply that I
found the link after reloading the damaged file. I canceled but
messages and I apologize, as well. I am currently trying to adjust to
new higher medication levels for my diabetes and high blood pressure
which affects my vision till its stable. I didn't take the time to see
what was wrong with the displayed message first because I wasn't feeling
well. As far as downloading a ZIP file: I do download them, but I check
them for a virus before I open it. I just won't click and open a file
that could be infected before downloading and checking it.
Once again, I screwed up and I apologize.
