Hi Pam: For some time, I have occasionally been receiving summaries of KING postings as MIME attachments. Someone told me that AOL does this when messages exceed a certain length. I have planned to check this out with AOL, but have been too busy of late taking care of my wife who has been ill for several weeks. In the meantime, I have downloaded the attachments to my floppy drive A. Then I run my virus checker program to see if it has a virus or other problem. After that, I read the data which is apparently in ASCII format. It looks just like a normal listing and apparently contains no bugs. The routine is cumbersome, but at least I get to read the posting and hope my virus checker works! Good luck, Tom King, Sr. PS: MIME means ..... Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions ...... Browsers use MIME to figure out what types of files they are looking at.
