Thank you Jim, Michael, and Frank,

I guess this is an improvement in security, but I do not want to read e-mail
in HTML, or Rich Text, so guess I will try to master the change. Not a very
friendly way to read newsgroups however.

Thanks again thought I was going daft, also can not locate Outlook Express
in my add and remove program list, how are the new computer users going to
repair O.E. when it does go astray?
