thanks for the advice Steve, I'll bear it in mind when installing Nod32 on my new machine. 

Cheers now,
Marie

Hi Douglas,

I made a support call to Microsoft the other day, completely unrelated to
this, but the Microsoft rep said they don't like these plugins from
antivirus programs that check your Email, because if they all do it, you are 
causing a hell of a slowdown on getting Email.  Real time scanning will
always get your viri if you attempt to open infected attachments, so the guy 
from MS said they are pointless and border on paranoia.  He advised me to
disable any that I may have. I don't have them enabled anyway, as my server is checking for viri all the time, so I don't need Email checked as it hits 
Outlook, and neither I believe, does anyone else.  I disabled it in Nod32
and my machine picks up Email without checking, but scans anything I attempt 
to access.

All the best

Steve

Marie,

I like the (presumably   Freudian) slip) in your first sentence.  I get
weary of taking so much
care with an attachment only to discover that it is quite harless or could
have been included in
the message body anyway!
At least you live where there is hope of periods of Summer weather - here in 
the UK it only
seems to occur once or twice a year.

we end up having one this year that is... All the best, Marie -----
