Ron - you're just now getting that "Microsoft Update" email? I get about
80-130 of them every day (I got 55 just overnight), for the last 2
months, with many different titles and from many different "senders".
The ISP can't block them, so they fill up my mailbox nearly every day,
unless I check email several times a day and delete them.
Lucky you if it's new to you.....
