[sdiy] Virus? let us die in peace.

[Happy Harry]

Yes... the Microsoft e-mail client is a "kick-me" sign
on your back !!!

I use Hotmail for mobile access to my pop account. They just
gave it a "new look"

I got a "help desk" call from my mother, tho is 73 years old.
Se said something was wrong with her computer and she could
not read the screen. (14")

They hardcoded the text size in Javascript... I can't read the screen
either... and I'm er... late 40's... and I have a 21" monitor.

Thats progress !!!

I e-mailed them twice... the second time I got through that the problem was 
NOT in my browser settings... but in their use of some
20 year old programmer with the eyes of an eagle...

watch out kid... I see a white cane and a German Shepard in your
future....

H^)harry  (glad I don't use Lookout express as well !!!)
