Status: O
I apologize for causing concern about the Dow_Boo!.exe file that I sent to
the list. Intentionally causing harm to anyone by means of a virus never
enters my mind. But how would you know that? When I think about the
provocativeness of the file name and the text in my note, I'm even clearer
about how I caused concern. My attempt at levity turned out So much for my
attempt at levity...<G>
I compressed the Dow_Boo!.exe file because the Dow_Boo!.doc file was large
and I thought it was a waste of the network to send the uncompressed file.
(Although later I did send the Dow_Boo!.doc file when I realized that there
may be Mac users who couldn't run the .exe file.)
The Metastock List was not the original audience for the Dow_Boo!.doc file.
I was sending it to friends and clients at various companies. They relate
to .doc files much better than anything else and they trust that I would
never send them something with a virus (because I'm a professional software
person armed to the teeth with virus protection myself). (I probably send
5-10 self-extracting files to clients per week and no harm is ever done.
But, again, how would you know that?) Sending the file to the Metastock
List was an afterthought. I briefly tried to figure out how to get .gifs
out of Metastock but didn't have enough time before I had to get myself to a
meeting. So, I sent it without thinking twice about how this individual
file might be perceived.
I have to say too that, given all the reasurrances of CNBC that 1987 and
1997 are completely different, the experience of actually comparing the two
chart patterns (DowInd1986/1987) and (DowInd1996/1997) impacted my
judgement.
I'd like the sending this individual file to be viewed in the context of my
previous recent contributions to the list (about a terrific internet Option
Chains quote service, S&P industry market topping patterns, info on the OEX
Master Blaster, the recommendation of the Schwager books, etc.). All
serious and informed; hopefully providing value to others...
Having said this, I apologize again for not thinking the issue through
before I sent the file, hence, causing concern. I'll spend time checking on
how to get .gifs out of Metastock. Perhaps someone could also provide info
on undocumented features...

saw that "Dow_Boo!.exe" file come down I was scared. Whenever I see an
unsolicited file of any kind come down I worry, but when I saw that it was
an
executable, the kind that does the damage, that is when I became scared. I
deleted it immediately, "shooting first and asking questions later," so to
speak. I did not want to give it a chance to self-execute before I acted. My
guess is that Steve meant no harm and that this is a learning experience for
him and us all. In the future, I do not want to see ANY unsolicited
executable
files come my way. I doubt that I will accept any executable file, even if I
know that it is coming, but will not close the door on that, taking each
case
as it arises.
