Dead was an over reaction.It seemed to me that when I tried to make contact the various methods offered for doing so,did not work. - Eventually I did contact him through F/Book. He told me he was unaware of any problems. This in the light of my Norton 360 reporting it as unsafe and actually removing the G Code Ripper programme. I never witnessed such abrupt action from Norton and I was, not unnaturally rattled. The guy made no further comment and thus it would have been foolish to continue. Unfortunate as he has some very useful programmes.
