ML>ML>>can you elaborate on that procedure?

a

Join my missing club! I'm president.

Actually I think I have solved the problem. She MUST download the
message (or rather WMV file to her computer). Works AOK then.

Also I finally figured (I think) out why the system kept getting
infected with viruses. There were several BAD entries in the start up.
The Startup Inspector I was using didn't show them but Codestuff Starter
did. Once disabled, so far no more viruses have come in. Just a few
hours so far, so I may be a bit premature in hollering success.

ML>wierd... as in wierd way to sign on to her account... what type of account
are
ML>you signing it to? a mail account or is this to get the DSL connection
"live"
ML>so that one can use the internet??

Not really. This allows her to check her account where ever she may be
with what ever computer is available. Yes, the computer is  connected to
the net almost immediately when booted up.

ML>all of the DSL accounts i've ever used had the DSL modem or connected router
ML>making the login automatically when powered on...

SBC prefers that you do not realize this and do it their way - which I
do NOT DO.

ML> JE> Does exactly the same from my system using the above
ML> JE> procedure. Both of us have sbcglobal.net for our ISP.

ML>what is your normal mode of login? what's different than the above?

ML> JE> Works OK from my system if I use WMP 9 or 10 when I play
ML> JE> a WMV file when I download the email with Eudora email. I
ML> JE> use MailWasher and Eudora.

ML>ah... so the problem is only with those in email? i have to wonder, then, if
ML>that's webmail? if so, then it may make sense because the file isn't located
on
ML>the local machine or streamed to the local machine...
