"has the moment that we've all been waiting for arrived...the moment wherein one may get a virus simply by reading an email?" i quote this excerpt from the most recent (5/8) langalist... "While there are email worms/viruses that auto-run, the Love Bug (and its clones and knock-offs) aren't like that: You have to click on the attachment to make anything happen." in addition, if you wish to read more on the subject (and hopefully obtain some degree of enlightenment in the process), <g3> visit the 'computer learning' thread, where the subject seems to pop up from time to time. here is a recent post (and you can follow the threads) that i found interesting and helpful. #reply-13597867 and finally, here's a link to the above-mentioned langalist, in case you don't have it already langa.com hope this helps :) mark
