    Ha.. well I guess I better be on the lookout. My system is over a year old now and I haven't added ANYTHING for the past 3 or 4 months. I feel like any damage they may cause has already been caused, and went unnoticed.

    So in other words... I'm really not worried, but thanks for the ID!


    And thank you Corailline for the kind words!
