Hi Chris,
I did not mean for that last message to sound dismissive. I suspect some
type of Trojan took over my computer and was sending out mass junk mails!
I only sent a few emails yesterday. most of the day we had company. In the
middle of a Disney movie, JAWS announced a HelpBalloon stating that the disk
was full! After the movie was over and the company went home, I found two
email rejection notices that kept referencing a loopback address, 127.0.0.1.
Additionally, there were two strange emails in my jaws-scripts folder
mocking that I had been removed from the list followed by a few nonsense
words! My C drive, which was complaining it was full hours earlier, still
had 7.5 GB free just as before! I have run a full scans of Trend micro
Antivirus, mrt, MalWareBytes, and SuperAntiSpyware. All ran clean!
Back to the subject, I am writing up the manual instructions now. I will
send it to you off list today. I will add this file, with your suggested
additions/changes, to the package, which will include it into the zip
folder. I am hoping to debug more enhanced Workstation scripts this
weekend. These will be based on the original versions of VMware. As soon
as I get these stabilized, I can look at what has changed in the latest
update. Have you used the updated versions of VMware yet?
