I am starting to think, though, that maybe the Choices field should be untranslated, as they really should be FQDN's (db.fr.clamav.net). I think that may be the smarter way to handle it, although then there is really a wrap problem. > > Default: local > > Using "_DefaultChoice:" would be great here.

I'm not planning to take that task on for this - it's already handled by upstream at the master DNS sites. They have different 'views' for the site db.local.clamav.net depending on connecting IP, and they have tried to return a close site based on that. They just ask that people try to use a close on picking, e.g., db.fr.clamav.net. Thanks again, -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- | ,''`.
