Speaking of viruses...

Having been really plagued by viruses - despite using anti-virus
software - I finally listened to my IS people and closed the preview
pane in Outlook, so that all I get now is a list of messages, with
NOTHING opened in any way or form - and since doing that, I have not had
a single problem. (Yes, I am also using active antivirus software. And I
delete without opening ALL email from senders whose names I don't
recognize, and ALL email that seems at all suspicious from people I do
know - as in messages from a name I know with a subject line such as -
"here's the report you asked for" when I didn't ask for anything.

I don't know about you, but I've been hit with 5 virus attempts in the
past 
2 1/2 hours. If you don't have your Norton or McAfee updated, you might 
want to now.
