Just noticed after posting and going through that it had already been posted - missed it when I scanned the first time.  So, sorry olmec36 - didn't mean to repeat the info you'd already given!  But, at least it's out in the community now....I must need more coffee!

No worries. I think this type of information is important nonetheless, to alert the users that don't have A2 to also update their anti-everthing programs.
