If anyone has experience with a setting which will turn this function off, I will gladly do so, but until then, please ignore the gobbledygook at the end of my messages. There are no virus' there. The other side of the coin is that this E-mail program (which is part of the new Internet Explorer package) is _very_ user friendly, and automatically hides all the header information from received messages. They are available by asking for message properties, but normally they are out of sight. Neat and clean. Don Mannino, RPT
