Just want to say that apparently your Exterminate It has worked like a
charm. I was infected with a most troublesome Malware Trojan that kept
replicating every time McAfee found, blocked and removed it... most annoying
for several days... until Mr. Google led me to your door. What a God send!
With thanks, Tom
