Joao Paulo.... I'm forwarding ya a copy via email of the "Newbie Book" (as we call it, And a "Newbie" is a new member) I send to all the first-time logons to the forum I manage on The Microsoft Network. It's in Word for Windows 6.0 format so I hope you'll be able to read it. The 'Book' opens by listing dozens of online acronyms and "emoticons," (those little "happy faces" like :-) and continues on with tips for the new user. Most are either Windows or MSN-specific, but I'm not gonna edit the tips out because some might be of use to you. Enjoy..... (providing your system can handle Word for Windows!
