There are never any easy answers when a program is targeted by hackers. Microsoft has put out a patch and a vendor has also posted one (links at end of message). It is my recommendation that users change from Outlook to Eudora Pro to avoid further problems. Eudora Pro is now free and available for download at: http://www.eudora.com/ You can also download the manual in .pdf format. For those who would like to learn how to use Eudora there are some tutorials at the site and I will be running the Eudora E-mail Quick Start course starting 1 July 2000. NOTE: this is a fee based course. Normal cost is $35.00 US but I will reduce this for list members to $20.00 US. Canadian residents may pay in Canadian dollars. Further information is available at: http://www.bestnet.org/~jwalker/eu.htm or you can send an e-mail message to: [log in to unmask] with Send EU in the subject line.
