-=PCTechTalk=- Re: oe weird

Well,
    Each OE update/upgrade brings new functionality and limitations.  The 
version I'm using (6.00.2900.2180 (xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158)) automatically 
opens messages in TEXT format (which is EXACTLY what I want it to do).  When 
I receive one that I fully trust and wish to view in HTML format, I just 
press ALT + SHIFT + H.  If I then move to another message and then back 
again, it's back to TEXT only, again EXACTLY the way I want it.

    The reason for the caution with HTML formatted messages is lengthy and 
well documented all over the web, but I'll toss out one of them here for ya. 
Until recently, I was stuck without phone service (and therefore my own 
connection to the internet) for over three years.  Now that I'm back, I see 
and feel a MUCH stronger and persistent threat of 'infection' than there was 
before my 'unwelcomed vacation'.  Before I left, I only had AV and Firewall 
running full time while occasionally running a Spyware app more out of 
curiosity.  I now have to run multiple SPAM, Spyware, Firewall, Phishing & 
Virus filter programs just to feel somewhat safe from the onslaught.  (And I 
most definitely practice better Safe Surfing techniques than I ever did 
before)

Peace,
GMan
