Thanks for the advice.  I did order these products from your
website, but you later cancelled my order, calling me a credit card
fraudster, and saying you wouldn't accept my order unless I changed my ISP
and my email address.  So I will now buy the same products elsewhere, and
I advise anyone else thinking of purchasing from your company to do
likewise.
