        Hi Edgar,

        It's been a wile since I left AOL (it was to much of a pain in the
a..), but if memory serves you need to go to the key word program and enter
MIME.  This will take you to a link to a web site where you can download a
MIME decoder.  Once you have this patch installed it should fix your problem
and open MIME files automatically.  I used it with version 3.? bit I thought
4.0 was supposed to fix this. I guess it didn't.

                                            Good luck and good trading,
                                                        Ray Raffurty
