That's an excellent suggestion, David.  Also, if you go into the Windows
software setup and turn off Visual Basic Scripting, these .VBS nastys won't
start when you open the mail.  For everyday use, VBS is not needed.  It's
easy to go back in and turn it on if you have a requirement for it.
Unfortunately, a lot of software installs will turn this feature back on, so
you have to be cognizant when adding new software.
