Hi Dave,
I had to go into my Accounts setup for newsgroups and reset it back to LAN,
before I did this naturally I couldn't get any msg d/l's.
Why do people do thes things?

I have no idea why people do these kinds of things, I do know that as
long as there are a million suckers out there to trick they will keep
doing it........

Never argue with an idiot. He brings you down to his level, then beats you

If you're using Outlook Express it is quite simple to stop the active
content of
email & news messages.
right click on internet explorer.
Properties->security.
Select the Zone for "unsecure Sites"
modify this zone to highest security, no active stuff allowed. (disable all
active
elements like java, javascript, vbscript, activex ....
then go to outlookexpress, extras->options->Security and select the
"unsecure
zone" for outlook express.
i can provide an email which checks your oe-security status.

Even if I do click on the paper clip icon, I'll get a filename
and when it has two extensions I'll make my own mind up before
clicking on the filename itself... ;-)
