    Well, you've actually found a bug in the product.  On Monday the problem
will have gone away.  This is rather embarrassing, but there is a bug in the
product that causes false alarms to occur in January :-(.  The explanation
is not a simple calendar related issue, but is actually an obscure bug.
    The good news is that the problem was fixed about 1 day after we first
found it, the first Monday of January, and the fix is available from
resellers, Compu$erve, or by calling 800-NetWare if you don't have access
to Compuserver, and the product will now work 12 months out of the year,
instead of 11 :-)
