Hi Chris,
I just find sending and receiving e-mails in HTML with JPG files
"Inserted"
into the e-mail more convenient and pleasing to view. Technically (I guess)
they are still attached, but its nice to not need to open a different viewer
to
see the charts (Since Outlook Express can view JPG files). I can have my
virus scanner scan for any type of file I desire... but I also know that
viruses
can be written around these scanners. Am I concerned about unwanted code?
Well...some say that the biggest virus out there comes with the name
"Microsoft"
on it <g> and that one always gets by my scanner. I guess that is why I keep
a
back-up of my most valuable software.
Living on the edge,
Adam
