Re: FN-FORUM download text support

This forum is an excellent communication vehicle but this topic now needs to
be taken offline.

It is getting far too much exposure for something of little relevance.

It is highly unlikely to be the freelancers server, more likely the site in
question or email messagein question using a non standard font or symbol.

Can we cease please or some users will drop from the list.
