All I've had from GR in my ordinary inbox are the standard messages that tell you there's a message in your GR inbox. Have you tried emailing GR? Good luck, Mandy :)

I am putting this on for a friend whose computer has now crashed due to this message attaching itself to her documents file and deleting all her programme files Thanks Eileen
