Sorry you perceive my post as being arrogant. Mostly I was trying to inject some humor.

What do you have against hippies, anyway? (chuckle now)

This will be my last post on the subject, unless there are others that want to 
continue this discussion in this list. It seems to be getting personal. If you want to 
further discuss, feel free to contact me off list.

You see, this cannot happen in my particular circumstances. I KNOW how to wash my 
hands. That is my whole point. I do not want my email censored just because of 
something that COULD happen to someone else. 

My "network" is email only, nothing local, no LAN server. I am the only windows user, 
others are mac. Plus, we are ALL trained in how to not get infected by and spread 
viruses. (And any user should know to turn macros off in Word and Excel.)

Bummer. I don't need it and don't want it forced on me.
