Scorpio,
I think what you're saying had validity in the past, but not with current
email programs.

Please keep in mind that displaying your messages in HTML is less secure
then displaying them in plain text.
This way, when the e-mail is in plain text, you don't have files that
might be viruses being activated, or beacons being triggered for fishing
e-mails.
I, for one, would not rely on my anti-virus, especially since I'm using
the free one by Microsoft, to completely secure my computer, so I take
every precaution.
If you find this is only happening a fraction of the time, in other words,
you're mostly copying links to send space, or something like that, it's
best to leave it in plain text, and if there's a link you have to click on
to go view a product, let's say, press the keystroke of alt+shift+H, this
will switch the e-mail into HTML, and keep the rest of your e-mails
secure.
Just a thought.
Scorpio

Go into your Options in Outlook Express and make sure you have messages
set
to be displayed in HTML, not plain-text.
Go to Options, Read tab, and make sure the box to read messages in
plain-text is not checked.
