On page 3 of the free designs I went to the file "happy baby (Author is la france A@AC quante) it would not open unless I allowed all of my personal information to go to this author. My PC Cillion Micro Trend stopped my information unless I allowed it. Please look into this. I am Thankful that I have this kind of protection on my computer.

Maybe we should combine the two so as not to upset our members. I was aware that not all members have had difficulty when I posted this reply.

You can split a post and make a new topic but I do not think that you can combine the two together to make one.

Could it be that our virus software just didn't pick it up and hers did?
