I would kindly request that HTML mail is NOT used for reflector mail, or mail sent directly to me. HTML is not supported by the current Compuserve software and simply fills my download directory with loads of attachments with names like NONAME.001 which I have to delete. Although I understand that HTML mail is popular with some, and appears to be growing in popularity, for those of us who, possibly for no reason of our own, cannot handle it, it is a decided nuisance! Thankyou. The episode with Happy99 demonstrates that some viruses definitely exist. Fortunately I was sufficiently warned about this one that I knew what it was even before I read the following mail giving the warnings. In any case I never read e-mail on line, and would certainly never run a file with a name like that. 73s Dave G3YMC sergeantd@compuserve.com
