BlankSharon, I found more info on the following AT&T site. Based on an earlier release on Friday, apparently EXCITE wouldn't tell AT&T if it would shut down - it just did it! http://192.20.3.54/press/item/0,1354,4100,00.html Marilyn When this is all done, we will all have a different e-mail address (the last part after the "at" sign) - and I finally got everyone notified and used to my new address when I subscribed to high-speed internet two months ago! Oh, well - guess that's what makes life interesting. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
