Reply from GR about the recent Malware attack:

Dear David.

Thanks you for your email. Please accept my apologies if this virus alert has caused you any worry.

There was an advert on the site which was inviting people to download an application. At that point your anti-virus software picked this up and warned you of the various types of viruses that could be contained.

This advert has now been removed from the site.

Best regards,
Estelle
Genes Reunited Support Team.

And that's the nearest you're going to get to an announcement from the management.

So I take it that that is why I can no longer find Errols thread. I just hope I have printed off the important bits for future reference.
