You two sounds like you want to go back from advanced Windows to the old crancky dark DOS days.
(but remember that DOS also comes on diskettes that can be infected.........and that whilst running
DOS programs, you too are exposed.......... And especialy do not visit the Internet, since whilst you
are online, you are exposed.......).
>From the advanced Web to the crancky dark BBS days.
>From the advanced HTML mails to the old crancky ASCII text pop-up format messages days.
1. Suggest to use its direct crancky pop-up copy (Linux) instead. But than also to be left in the dark
ages when it comes down in to being "advanced" and to have to superflously mail over and over
again to fellow suckers in News groups for not available support and from actions have
head-over-top tsjok-a-full mailfolders for results.
Otherwise:
2. Join the News groups for :
-the "non-infectable" 3-liners (shit, they too can now come with attachments, thus make that "infactable")
-also very informative, but usualy than for subject :
-for very experienced program users only (eg the quick "shorthanded" messages)
(certainly doesn't account not for many (MSK) users or TA problem/formula describers)
-not for general + very experienced/advanced Technical Analisis
(certainly doesn't account for this extensive advanced subjects(TA and/or MSK)
since that most of the time these are not in 3-lines explainable subjects).
-rember that receiving 100+ mails a day, can be quite common in News groups.
-(oppose to the great variaty seen on the MSK List) messages are often endless follow ups about the
same subjects.
3. Than get rid of all your software(since that by using any software you will ALWAYS be exposed)
4. Than just update your software to modern programs +stop wining (not ment in a bad way).
5. Be left figuring out how to rhyme steps 2+3+4. (For answers see 7).
6. End the end 80's/early 90's BBS-sytem(=old hat) and convert over to the Web(many have
preceeded and you'll become a webmaster instead of sysop).
7. Possible answers to 5 could be PalmPilots and/or portable instant mail-messengers/phones.
