    The Seafood Network Information Center server (seafood.ucdavis.edu) went
    down yesterday and I hope to have it back up tomorrow morning.

    There was a code red worm imbedded in the server's memory. (We think it's
    been there for quite some time.) People who accessed the server were not
    at risk. When the worm was removed yesterday, the process interupted the
    internet service connection. Our computer technician is on sick leave
    today but valiantly called in and tried to help me bring the server back
    on line. At least we were able to pinpoint the problem this afternoon.

    Thank you for your patience.
