2. Saddened by this...

I hope they get him back.. On a personal note, Kaspersky free (trial) download helped me out of a real spot when I had a trojan I just couldn't get rid of years ago. Though my paranoia about a recurrence has me now running two full security security packages in concert (yes, it can be done symbiotically without interference), I think Kaspersky makes a good product.

Russia's a tough area for this kind of thing. I hope for the best possible outcome.
