In MS's defense (I don't do that often) My last 2 versions of Outlook
wouldn't let me run a pif or an scr if I wanted to.

It's the mother on her 4 year old windows 98 machine, that causes this
stuff.

Imagine the problems if our collective mother's were using a 4 year old
linux installation?

The wetware could make better decisions is his M$ Outlook actually told him
he was running an .exe file instead of looking at a .gif...

Friends don't let friends use Windows.
