Hello,
Can you please take me off your distribution list manually?  I get about 30
of these per day.  The unsubscribe option below does not seem to be working
fully. Regards John

I know that iscan isn't affected. But my point was that with me any other
frontends (as scanimage, scanadf, kooka, xsane, etc) weren't affected

Hope this helps (this should be followed by a grin smiley, but my browser
doesn't produce it - it's an alpha-version - so another sorry).
