Dear Andrew Tridgell A strange thing happened last night. I was working on a Word document. I scrolled up to the top of the document, and the first section had been replaced by the following text, all formatted exactly as I had set it: Copyright Andrew Tridgell and the Samba Team 1992-2004 [2005/02/21 23:50:25, 0] /SourceCache/samba/samba-59/samba/source/smbd/server.c:main(757) smbd version 3.0.5 started.

Copyright Andrew Tridgell and the Samba Team 1992-2004 [2005/k them to read their ?writing? to you, even if it is a series of marks that you don?t understand. I?ve highlighted in red where my own text suddenly starts. I ran Norton Anti-virus through the machine, but no virus was spotted. I use an iMac, OSX, 10.3.7. How can this have happened? How do I get my text back (doubt that I can)? How do I stop this happening again? Any clues? Sheila Ebbutt
