Re: Ecco alarms are not behaving properly - urgent

Hi Douglas,

Thanks for this. We are moving to Ubuntu for our servers and I am sure 
we will move across to Linux next year as we migrate all of our data 
handling to the cloud.  Possibly for no other reason than the habit 
Microsoft has of restarting your machine whenever it wants, and needing 
to give you loads of updates that they would not have needed if they had 
got it right in the first place! We have machines on XP and that is the 
way I will go with these. This is actually a new machine with Windows 7.

I have used Ecco for many years, and while I can still run it I will 
continue to do so.

Best wishes
