The message
from Kay Easton contains these words:

It wouldn't be virii anyway, would it? That'd be the plural of virius.


4th declension noun would be virii. I can't remember what viri
translates as (and I've lost my huge Latin dictionary) but it isn't the
plural of virus.

I *COULD* bother one of Zetnet's directors and ask him for a(nother)
full explanation,


Of what virii translates as? {:-))

but he's rather busy ATM with a (presumably)
intermittent fault on one of the servers.


You don't get faults on *real* ISP servers :-)

.... and the idea of the director fixing one is laughable.
