    Help, a virus ate my laptop and I lost some of the Flag Services members info and other contact stuff. If you were or wanted to be in this database of safety officials from all across the country I need to update and reenter a ton of stuff.
    If you can help with info updates, etc, email me at [email protected]
    I always learn the hard way, and upgrades to latest virus protection software. What a pain in the you know what.
    Guess that what happens when you depend on email for most everything.
    Oh well, I needed to upgrade anyway.
    Thanks for the help in advance.

    No, I remember his. I did lose some of the other "big names" but I am sure I will get them all back when I see them at the races.;)

    Dan, if you need data entry help and I can be of any help from a distance, let me know. I type between 80-100 wpm with about a 90% accuracy rate. Now if only I could race as fast as I type. :D

    If you're going to upgrade, I would HIGHLY recommend buying a CDRW (readable/writable CD-ROM drive) so you can put all your data files onto a CD instead of leaving that fragile data on your hard drive for viruses to steal. And most virus protection programs come with free (or reasonably priced) update programs. Do you have anything now? If so, you should contact the maker and see if you can purchase an upgrade.

    Let me know if I can be of any more help Dan.

    Thanks, I did it the day it happened and now my rebuilt will have it too. Norton 2002 and the cd rewriter.
    Oh well, Ken Abott frpom F-USA emailed me back my data base and even added some names for me.
    All I really miss is the pics fromDaytona, Fontan, Summit Pt.
    I think I know who took pics I can get from each race and the Alpina setups.
    Thanks, see ya soon at a track near you.

    Ya mean Alpina does not have a safety device to prevent this from happening? :D

    Thanks again for being at SP.
