I agree, Bill. I use Netscape (an older version, 4.79) unless I have to use IE because the site doesn't load right otherwise. And I never use Outlook. I use Norton Antivirus...been using Norton Utilities since I got my first computer, an Epson Equity I (IBM-PC clone) in 1985. (The most important thing about an antivirus program, after having it, is to keep it up to date.) ZoneAlarm for a firewall, AdAware to search and destroy spyware, and I just discovered WebWasher, which is a wonderful way to avoid those annoying popups. But I do frequently go out without an umbrella!

Aloha,
Mark
