["Stanley A. Gorodenski" <stanlep@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you Jim and  Matt. I recently started using Mozilla as my web browser but 
not for email,
even though when I installed it it copied all my email from my Netscape 4.7 in 
virutally the same
format. I haven't been using Mozilla for email, though, because it is a little 
slow for some
reason. I did not know Mozilla had a good popup killer, primarily because since 
I knew it was
Netscape based, and my version 4.7 of Netscape does not have this feature. I 
will look into it
some more.
