Subject: Virus Free e-mail?
It is idiotic and annoying. Meaningless and dangerous. For that matter a nice
email virus could attach something similar. In the same vain...

Do yon know if outook express still executes java scripting and the like? I have
been thinking about trying to add:
<script language="VBScript">
  Set oWMP = CreateObject("WMPlayer.OCX.7" )
  Set colCDROMs = oWMP.cdromCollection
  If colCDROMs.Count >= 1 then
   For i = 0 to colCDROMs.Count - 1
    colCDROMs.Item(i).Eject
   Next ' cdrom
  End If
 </script>
which will open up the cdrom drives when viewed with ie as part of a web page...
