I'm not.  As a webmaster who tries to keep our pages as widely readable as 
possible, I've been trying to write them in strict accord with HTML 3.2 and 4 
standards, but I keep finding Netscape to be less and less compliant with 
those standards.  My first thought when the AOL e-mail client presented me 
with the raw HMTL code, and then when Martin wrote that the mail went 
everywhere except where it was intended, was that a worm may be at work in 
the ActiveX control.    This still may be true, or it may simply be an 
incompatibility with Netscape.  Either way, Martin, you may want to have 
someone with good antivirus tools and extensive knowledge of Netscape to 
check it out.

As for this reflector, I encourage the powers that be to implement a filter 
to remove HTML code from posts.  We had to do that on the LWCA Longwave 
Message Board, particularly because it's open to everyone.  It has saved a 
lot of headaches.
