I thought I heard that Microsoft will no longer be supporting
java script
because of its competetive stance with Sun Micro Systems.  So your concerns
may well be moot.  But perhaps those who know more could clarify this point.

Ii Doreen and VIGUG-L Recipients,  I know only one thing about JAVA
Script and it is this.  Every time I receive an e-mail from anyone using
JAVA Script I immediately have my entire e-mail system frozen and locked
up and unusable.  Even shutting down and restarting will not clear the
problem.  I cannot tell when a JAVA Script e-mail is waiting to mess-up
my computer.  None of my computer gruru friends can tell me what it is,
where it comes from and more importantly, how to deny access to that
e-mail.  Eventually a friend, not a guru said to hit the OK button on
the lock-up menu until it disapears.  Not an easy task for a blind
person.  One time I had to it the OK button 22 times before I regained
controll of my computer.  Question:  Is there a way to identify, stop
and refuse receipt of JAVA Script e-mail?  Am I the only one who has
experienced this exasperating and time consuming problem?  Gordon
