Until this morning, I've completely ignored all the posts about SoBig. I had
no idea the virus has been such a problem. We use MS Outlook at work (I'm
using it right now) and I haven't receive a single email that I wasn't
suppose to get. I don't know what our network people are doing but it must

Every once in a while I get fed up with something that Outlook does/does not
do and go looking at other email programs. Over the years I've tried dozens
but keep ending up back with Outlook because I need the PIM integration not
separate email clients, contact managers and calendars.

Damn right they're doing what's right!

Hi,
I'm told I missed what could be a very important post, a link to a script
for cloaking email.
My source tells me she thinks it's Tom Fosson who posted it. Would whoever
did, please repost
it for me? Pretty please?
Thanks,

What I can't quite figure out is why the spam filters caught approx. half of
the SoBig emails but left the other half to go into my inbox.
On the whole Outlook 2003 is a much better program than 2002.

Outlook can be configured to only download headers and lets you delete
messages from the server much like Mailwasher. However, I don't know how to
do that so I can't instruct you.

Who names these viruses? Forgive me for saying, but the names sound like
they belong to a porno site much more than a name for viruses!

Heather,
I used to use e-cloaker 2.0, myself, (I think I even got the link
for it from here, too,) but it doesn't do URL encoding, if I
remember correctly.

your browser - offline - so you always have it handy while you're

Thanks so very much for your free code. I've been using an email
cloaking program that uses Javascript, and even though it works, the
code looks horrible. Your program is great, it works, and it's not long
like the other one. Also, the URL cloaking is a wonderful PLUS.

What I'm looking for is a training course for LAMP. It would have to be

Personally, I prefer a 5-day crash course, but a good 8-week on-line
