Thanks, but I'm accessing this board thru a newsreader
(OE) and 'many' times there are attachments on the
post's, which of course I never open. Occasionally
you'll see someone post, "ABOVE POST IS A VIRUS, DON'T
OPEN" so I wondered how they would know this unless they
were able to scan it somehow. In OE, there seem to be at
least 6 or more of these crossed out post's just today.
