I've been breathing easier since I started running phoenix/firebird/firefox and then to breathe even easier i switched to thunderbird, now it's text only emails, no html, no outlook/express security issues, moving to linux currently, little by little. Windows is a dead end as far as I'm concerned, too many years fielding too many support calls for infected machines, it's gotten boring, I'll sacrifice full ease of use for some control, no problem. Linux is only going to get better, windows peaked in 2000 or so, it's getting worse as far as I'm concerned.
