Just thought I'd point out that you're unlikely to get a response, as 
Matt Giwer has been barred from the server...

See The message in povray.general posted on the 30th of December by Ken 
Tyler, entitled : 'Announcement: Matt Giwer has been banned from 
news.povray.org'  for more details.

Bye for now,
     Jamie.
