O.E. + security
My p.c. is well protected,i.e., hardware firewall and all the necessaries.
I am concerned about my O.E. I was given as far as security is concerned. Outlook is more expensive but I don't know if O.E. compromised the security to bring the cost down from Outlook. Is O.E. truly safe as long as the pc is well protected -all the O.E. updates from M.S. are installed. -- Grampy Pete

Depends on what you mean by secure Someone can't use it to get into or infect your machine any more easily than through Outlook, but the OE password is a joke and will only deep out honest people. It's like locking your front door but leaving all the other doors and windows unlocked. You should be running a good anti-virus with email scanning turned off and also a good anti-spyware. If you use OE don't use Norton or McAfee. -- Frank Saunders MS-MVP IE,OE/WM www.fjsmjs.com Do not send email
