I'm glad you figured out that I meant to type '1.3'. OE is a hunk o junk
(it doesn't trim my .sig(nature) on your replies, it inserts your
replies ahead of what you are replying to, it has more bugs and
loopholes than I can begin
to enumerate, so why not get something (anything) better to use.

I use Spywareblaster which recognizes my old Firebird and doesn't
need to 'run'. With FB, I've never needed any other 'resident'
protection running. That is why I prefer FB over IE.
