If anyone is using Outlook Express or knows someone the few things need to
apply all updates, and have a constantly updated Antivirus and a Firewall
for them Winders users like Zonealarm. Recommend them to use AVG totaly Free
and updated more then Norton aka Snorton, and McAfee aka McCrappy , Bit Ware
aka $h*tware, Innoculant aka isn'tworthaSh*t etc., Avg was the first
Antivirus to mention this and the varants last week!!!!!!!
Also Avg has a plugin for OE,.
