While using your address book, <DATABASE>Your.addresses.sgm</DATABASE>,
from a network computer, you might experience a transient
<ERRORNAME>DISCONNECT</ERRORNAME> condition described as a
<ERRORCODE MOREINFO="REFENTRY">Terrific Jam</ERRORCODE>.  This is a
<ERRORTYPE>Remote</ERRORTYPE> error condition, and the only
cure is to hold your breath until the trouble passes off.  Do
not remove your <HARDWARE>SmartCarde 1999</HARDWARE> or it will
lose its value.
