Ahhh, the joys of running Netscape V4.74, Norton's Antivirus (updated at least once a week) and Zone Alarm Firewall. Receive an average of 3-4 viruses per week. Never been harmed by any of them.

You folks running Outlook or Outlook express are just inviting big trouble. I can understand your not liking Netscape, but Eudora has a swell email client and it is as free as Outlook and not nearly as prone to viruses. HEADS UP!

Run Outlook 2000. It uses the security settings from Explorer to keep unsigned active-x scripts from running. Problem solved.

Just a note regarding Norton A/V 2000. I had a customer who used and updated NAV religiously on a peer-to-peer network. I installed a network server with Trend Micro's OfficeScan & ScanMail for Exchange Server and it picked up some 100 various trojans from a handfull of PCs that NAV did not detect. This was the first time I had seen first hand that NAV was not all I thought it was. Trend Micro's products are excellent.
