Internet Explorer 5.50.4522.1800 with Outlook Express 5.50.*4522.1200* has it
and functions per the demonstration. Definitely a kicker if you have ever
opened vcards in newsgroup posts or mail, you disengage the warning the first
time. To enable the warning again, on win9X do my computer|folder options|file
types|vcard|edit|[x] confirm open after download
