Hi Janet and All,
Thanks for the info.  Hopefully, we can avoid these bugs by being
extra vigilant when it comes to attachments and large unexpected
downloads.  Like you, I try to avoid Microsoft. I use Pegasus e-mail,
(thankyou David Harris for a well behaved and very stable program)
and I use the Norwegian program Opera as my browser.

Incidently, Opera version 4 beta 4 is now available to download online at:
http://www.operasoftware.com

Opera just keeps getting better and better. I never use Netscape at
all anymore and I have removed Internet Explorer.

Getting back to bugs and e-mail.... If you should happen to delete
a download and it turns out your daughter sent you a file containing
jpeg pictures of your new granddaughter, don't sweat it... She'll resend
it.... Mine did...  And next time she'll send me a *headsup* e-mail
first so I know what to expect.

Best regards ........ murray
