I have already sent a check to Barb Mallut to cover the cost of the Yam Cream including the shipping! I tried your solution stated above. Didn't have Arrid Xtra dry but used Right Guard. When the sparks ceased flying, I found the virus's lying around on the floor and stomped them good. Worked like a charm. Thanks for the easy remedy. Now can you tell me how to smooth out the cables and wipe away the sparks that occasionally emit from the hardware? Thanks again.......Jack :<)
