I am very new to the news groups, so I am still pretty clumsy in here,
I was clicking on stuff and I saw that someone had apparently done something
wrong by adding a link to a GIF file. I did not access this file myself
(thankfully), but I am left wondering if this news group thing is safe? I
mean if that person can post a file and force my browser go to their
website, couldn't that also make me my PC receive a virus? Is there a
precaution I should be using? About the changing of GZ, I can only say
please don't do that! Aw GZ, In spiteof its poorly built structures near
GZ, is like home to me.
If anything needs to be changed at all I would ask that Jenna gets a new
shirt! I mean animal prints are simply NOT in style anymore!, and maybe
add a few more of the cool dance seqs (ie cywards had some great new ones)
to the dat file. <smiles> Donna

please do note that these newsgroups are not affiliated with the forums on
AWNews.com and polygon.imatowns.com. yes, in some way ppl could do that, but
they can anyway, not harder than redirecting or putting some sort of hidden
download (dead easy with IE, you can just embed an ActiveX control and it'll
autodownload, no easyer way of getting ppl to download stuff... Do like me,
use Netscape (v 6.1 just ROCKS!), and you'll be a lot easyer than with IE
(maybe it's code for Internet Evil?)

PS. the security levels stuff in IE is BS, they don't protect in any way.

ooops, I was a bit droowsy when I wrote that, "... and you'll be a lot
easyer than..." was meant to be "...and you'll be a lot safer than...",
sorry.
