I will give the same advice and make the same offer I make to every list I'm on when this happens. Stop using Microsoft Outlook! That is the reason these things happen. Yes, it came for free with windows, but that doesn't mean you have to use it. It is more full of security holes than all the swiss cheese ever made. And no amount of microsoft updates will change that. Now, as a solution, use one of the free or not free replacements. I have used Pegasus for over a decade and never been infected from viruses I received, and never passed one on. It's free and one of the most used email programs in the world. Did I mention that it's free? I will assist anyone that needs help in installing or using it. It is available from Tucows at http://teliadk.tucows.com/preview/194175.html or www.pmail.com which seems to be down right now for some reason. Now, even better, stop using windows and move to linux or apple. I'll also help any list member get a linux box running that needs help. tom ------ Tom Ring K0TAR, ex-WA2PHW EN34hx 85 Westphalia GL Albert 96 Jetta GL The Intimidator taring@taring.org "It is better to go into a turn slow, and come out fast, than to go into a turn fast and come out dead."
