There is still very little proven, 'on the record' stuff. But yes, increasingly these things are reported... look at the newsgroup comp.software.year-2000, as always a front runner on Y2k. As increasingly little time remains, and more and more newby programmers are hastily slamming in program fixes into production systems, these things are bound to happen. But just do not expect any official on-the-record reports on (similar to computer fraud; security abuses and so on... not bank will admit that such as thing happened...) Regards, John
