Thanks for letting us know!  Even though I do not use your product, I
salute your honesty.  Anyone that deals with a large volume of floppy
disks is bound to get hit by a virus sooner or later--even software

I have seen other developers try to lie their way out of this problem, but
they usually ended up pissing off all of their clients.
