Re: OT! Color Messages

Dear Jo and Jim,

I love the colored messages! Do you need a special program to do that?

I am using windows '98, if that matters.

Dear Jo and Sue,

Thanks for all that info!!! I am going to make it all into a file and

keep it on the Group site so we can all refer back to it.

" Internet Explorer " and " Netscape " were the two browsers preloaded on

my computer which is now 4 years old. I used to get lots of lock ups

using Explorer. My friend, Jeff (first boyfriend and a computer whiz)

kept warning me about the " rich text " and suggested I try Mozilla by

Firefox as my browser to help with the many lock ups. It worked! It is

a " lean and mean " browser and doesn't have extra fancy stuff to slow

the system down. So it doesn't have the rich text. I've been using

Mozilla for everything. I have the group, and my emails on the " one

touch " bookmarks, so one click and I'm there. It's nice and snappy. I

can't imagine going back to Explorer. Jeff said Mozilla is related to

Netscape--a paired down cleaner version I think. You can down load it at:

You might like it.

I have never been able to use Outlook Express. I used to get so many

lock ups that Steve (in a fit of total frustration) disabled it. I

don't miss it in the least. I know others have said they can't believe

I don't use Outlook Express, but one thing about comouters is that

there are many ways to do everything, so you eventually figure out

something that works. ;-)

Love,
