FUD! FUD! FUD! "I sure hope you are correct that my completely unfounded
statement is nonsense.  (But heaven help us if not!!!!)"

Please, Walden, I expect better of you.  If not, I'll have to start
calling you Elmer.

Ah humbuggie.  Quite a few of the Security Alerts I've seen have the
words "if a user visits a malicious website".  Sorry, but good ol' Port
80 seems to be wide enough to let in LOTS of those pesky little
"Vulnerabilities".  As is the big ol' barn door called Outlook...
according to many of the bulletins, your best bet is to disable HTML
email entirely.  Then again, the REAL answer might be to altogether stop
using products with more bugs than bytes; I'm going to make a concerted
effort in 2005 to see about alternative desktops.  Since I can build a
fairly high-end machine for less than $500 these days, this might make
sense, no?
