"Terry Mester after much thought,came up with this jewel:"
ANS: Going by this comment and the quotes you provided in your Post, I
think you are confusing the Original Poster's comments with my answers. I
had put the OPs comments in "quotes".

" There are security defects in all OSes. "
ANS: I'm sure that Apple and Linux have some security problems, but I'm
also sure you would agree that Microsoft has a very high number of problems.
Don't you think it should be possible to turn 'ftp' off!

" Buy more RAM(the cost has dropped) and a NAT router(under $50 US)"
ANS: My main problem is that my Processor is only 935 MHz. I can buy more
Memory, however, it has to be the same company brand! When I tried
installing a different brand of SIMM Memory Chip on my former Computer, the
Processor wouldn't recognize it! Can you explain that?

" You need a more secure e-mail client-try Thunderbird."
ANS: I have been using Thunderbird for 2 years. However, I don't think you
can expect TBird to scan the contents of an HTML Message. Those two "i" Text
Files put onto my Hard Drive were pretty benign. I now know better than to
view such a Message, and I always review my E-Mail "offline" so that nothing
can get downloaded from a Message. I believe the last time this happened to
me was from a Message on Hotmail -- which of course has to be opened
"online". I now know better than to open them. It is vitally important for
Internet users to know that you can get infected by just 'looking' at a spam
E-Mail without an Attachment, and to know that these Messages telling you to
forward it on are a new spammer technique. I might still have the original
Message on my Hotmail Account. If you're interested in scrutinizing it, I
could forward it to you.
