Tool for removing the Goner worm

2001-12-05 Thread Gene Gaines

Symentec US is providing a free tool for removal
of this uninvited guest, with a full explanation
of how it operates and propagates.

I'm sure other antivirus companies are doing the
same, but thought this might be useful.

Yuki,

I am very interested in knowing if you determine what
causes this problem.

Please let me know off-list.

Thanks.

 The pop up arrive immediately after logging in, and if I sit and

 even there.

 For more information, see Help and Support Center at

 Well, I went there.  Sorry, there is no information, blah,
 blah, blah.

 Anyone know what is happening here?  My Run key seems clean in the
 registry, as well as the start up folder.  I can account for
 everything in those two locations, and none of these items acted up
 under 98.

 Would not be surprised to find MS guilty of trying to ram Outlook
 down everyone's throat of course.

 Best,

 Yuki ^_^

My worst fear with TheBat

2001-11-09 Thread Gene Gaines

Love the program!

Have one problem, and yes, my worst fear.

With email receiving on all day long while I am
working in other applications, I jump into TheBat,
fly through new mail, and if there are a large
number of emails in TRASH, I empty it.

My fear is that I will select one of my folders just
above or below TRASH, and kill the wrong mail.


(As protection, I keep a PARKED message in the
folder just above and just below TRASH.)

There needs to be a safeguard, such as an EMPTY
TRASH icon or menu item.

Is there such a function and I am missing it?

 Hello,

 When you select a person that you have registered with several email
 addresses in your address book, how can you select which email address
 to use when you make a new message?
 It always seems to use the first email address that you typed in your
 address book


   I'm using The Bat! Version 1.53d under Windows 98 4.10 Build   A

Re[2]: Size and complexity of mail database

2001-10-24 Thread Gene Gaines

Joseph,

I am running The Bat! 1.51.

In a word, magnificent.

I have 32,615 emails in over 100 folders.
My Inbox alone has 1,305 emails.
Disk occupied is 389 MB -- I have a good
  number of emails with large attachments.

Speed is excellent.

And this on 100 MHz Pentium with 96 MB ram,
Windows 95.  Don't need more machine for
this application.

My only complaint is that I receive a few
very large emails with complex html formatting,
and these take longer than I would like to
load to read.

 Hi Joseph,

 I have over 4000 Emails in my Folders alone, as i like to Archive
 Mailing list Emails incase i ever run into a problem, i can always

 Hope this Helps, As TB! Is well worth registering!!

Re[4]: Terrorist Attacks

2001-09-11 Thread Gene Gaines

Dominic,

Re:  Your statement American thinking can be dangerous.

I say gently, lumping all Americans together as either bad
or good is a mistake.

My America is a highly diverse land, rich with many cultures
that live together with surprisingly little friction.

Here is my own American thinking.

I volunteer as a tour guide at the U.S. Capitol building.
My next shift is Saturday morning.  I will be there.

I will be there to honor freedom, not to promote American
thinking.

I will honor such people who worked for freedom as
Constantion Brumedi, Thaddeus Kosciusko and George
Washington.  I list Washington last because he would have
said all men are equal, list our names in alphabetic order.

 Same  here.  I've  been  in  shock  all  day  and  still  am having

 The  reaction  of  the vast majority. What happened was an atrocity,
 all those dead people. One thing that disgusted me was when the news
 here in the UK showed scenes of Palestinians celebrating.

 Judging   this   is   difficult  just  because  of  totally  different
 traditions.

 My  heartfelt  condolences  to all those affected directly by these
 bombings. I have an uncle that lives in Washington but haven't been
 able to contact him. I also have relatives in New York.
 I hope your relatives are alright. This is a terrible time for you.

 So do I.

 When will people learn that this isn't the way?
 Never,  particularly since the reaction of many Americans on NG's is
 to 'nuke whoever is responsible'. Given the amount of countries with
 nuclear  weapons that would be a big mistake and could possibly lead
 to a global nuclear war.

 Yes. American thinking can be dangerous.

 Best Regards

That is your opinion.

 I prefer English to some of the obfuscation that is used to alienate people 
 from the products of big corporations.

 That is, if every poster suddenly refers to every single product of MS or 
 other with false names, it gets on the nerves.  Just IMHO.
