So I've heard. You probably realized by now that the objection to the cost was not my post. I also use AVG and plan to install ZA , but someone told me to wait on that until I get the cable, I don't know why. If I download ZA now, with my dialup, will it interfere with the cable installation? Or is it just more stuff to change over? I just read a few more posts and I see Wyatt has the same idea as I do, I also see how passionate you are about the highspeed connections <g> I just can't wait--I HATE waiting!!!

I am just saying that you have the same trouble with dialup that you have with cable. I use and used AVG and ZL (both free) with cable and DSL and now with this slow dialup and haven't had any virus get to the computer on any of the connections. If I could get either cable or DSL here and couldn't afford it I would go without eating a few days a month to pay for it. If you get cable you will know what I am talking about and never want to go back to dialup.

I sure wish I could get Cable or DSL here where I am. I have my computer on 24 hrs a day even on dialup. You try Cable and you will never go back to dialup. I wish I had ask if there was DSL or Cable here before I bought this house, I ask if there was internet and was told yes. I wouldn't have bought if I had knew there wasn't a fast connection. > Sincerely Yours, > Hank > > From: "Glo" <redowl@xxxxxxxxxxx> > Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: JS Fortnight B Trojan > Date: Sun, 8 Jun 2003 00:47:48 -0700 > > So Wyatt, I think I'm beginning to understand: are you saying there is no > way to disable HTML in Outlook Express, that is why you use a different > mail program?
