makes a whole lotta sense. I've never
had a virus yet. Keep thinking I'll go
shop for Norton's antivirus software but
never get around to it. By the way does
anyone know how one can avoid getting those stupid ads? I've added a
few new e-mail addresses and have received several ads for money
making schemes, etc. Must be from
some idiot who has my address and has passed it on to someone,?
one
or two had an option to respond with a "don't send me any more of these
messages" but the one does not. I don't even have a stomach for
those
dumb forwarded jokes! so guess I
don't have a sense of humor I get business mail to require me enough
time in front of the computer.
