snip Ok, I'm officially envying U.S. users ;) Here in Europe, several 3G networks are operational now, but there's a lack of handsets - so far, most 3G handsets on the market are CDMA2000 1xRTT, and those networks are nowhere to be found in Europe.

Switch to another browser and 99% of these ghastly viruses will be lost searching for the
inner backdoor mechanisms of MSFT's embedded browser.

Unluckily you also then need to know how MSFT tries to make life difficult for these browsers, keep
track of resources,etc, but it beats all those security features.

Worried and using Outlook??? doesn't make much sense??

re: Nokia Players (Real & Windows Media) for Capital Market Days et al

<< listening to the Nokia Cap Markets day in one session, since Nokia makes it so hard to get the sound working >>

Some comments:

First, I have had no problem with audio or video on either pop-up player on the Nokia Capital Market Days presentations either running WIN 98SE with IE 5.5 and older versions of the players or the most current versions of the players (including the new "Real One" free Beta).

I did have one recent audio problem with "Real One". As silly as it might sound the volume control on the taskbar (not the player) was high enough to play the Media Player with sound but not the Real Player.

Media Player does not require the Microsoft VM JIT compiler for virtual machine to be enabled for the Nokia Capital Market Days presentation (IE6 Tools | Internet options | Advanced Tab) but it must be enabled to establish a connection for the Real One Player in my XP IE6 setup.

<< One reason to keep Java turned off. >>

I think it is really one reason to keep virus definitions up to date daily and keep script blocking and auto-protect turned on.

With products like Norton AntiVirus that run live update and installs the defs automatically in the background it is every bit as much a no brainer is fetching windows critical updates automatically (although I use the notify option not the auto install option for those).

BTW: I seem to recall that XP (at least XP Home) does not include the Java VM (but choosing to upgrade install as opposed to a clean install - which is the route I chose) leaves the Microsoft Java VM intact, and it can of course be downloaded from Microsoft.

<< Kind of neat to see one new Nokia cell phone approved this year even if it is just a TDMA phone. >>

Kind of neat to see early reports of 40% Nokia market share in the Americas "even if" that includes a lot of TDMA models and rather pedestrian CDMA models.

<< A Dual-Band Analog/PCS Phone & GPS Receiver, Samsung A400. >>
