[sword-devel] virus

[Troy A. Griffitts]

OK, MPJ,
	I clicked on the little autoinstaller thing at:

http://enigmail.mozdev.org/download.html

	I wish more software installed plugins like this.  It really went well. 
  So... After installing, I came back to read your signed message and it 
told me to click OK button to download public key from key server: 
wwwkeys.pgp.net  I did, and then it said: Bad signature from Michael 
Paul Johnson <mpj@ebible.org>

	I just don't ever get these signing and encryption mail things... :)

	I have pretty new buttons in netscape mail now, though :)
