Eudora since version 3, I think. Web-based is Yahoo. Excite for potential spammers.

I have to agree with Nomad, NOD32 is the best when it comes to use of resources. I have used Norton, McAfee, and Panda. It is smooth and clean but costs $30-40. That is worth it to me. I use it in tandem with spyware doctor 3.8.

It worked just like you said. They should arrive in about 10 days. My wife will be very surprised. She has to hit the M&M store whenever we go to Vegas and her license plate says "Red M&M". After 26 years ya' gotta come up with something new once and awhile to keep that spark! Bill

Thanks FP,
I ordered it online Wednesday evening and the Office Depot truck pulled up in my driveway Thursday and hand delivered it to me! Unbelievable! Rebate sent off today. Will not need printer paper for 8-10 years.

I have sent you an email because I am interested in the 270 for my current T Mobile. I would rather not post my email here so let me know.

"How To?" launch several programs at once?

I would like to launch my pop up stopper and cookie wall when I start Internet explorer as opposed to them loading when I boot up. Can I do this without involving DOS with a .BAT file? Thanks.

Rebate Coupons

The cash register spit them out after the receipt. They do not have a coupon wall like CompUSA. One goes to Circuit City and the other to Western Digital.
