Ah OK then. :)

Hmmm... what weird characters? Yes, I did use MS Outlook to post that
message, and yes, maybe it is Bill's "enhanced" version. I'm trying to
switch to Ximian Evolution. *whinge* My Linux box is too small and too
slow for usual work (Pentium 166's used to be cool, some time ago :P) so
I'm stuck with my still-under-warranty WinXP box, with evil things on
it, like MS Outlook and so on. But once the warranty's gone, I'm gonna
gut it and put a shiny Linux installation on there. :)

BTW, I hear a rumour that the WinXP "kernel" (if it can be called that)
has got some Linux kernel code in it and that that may account for its
stability over previous Win9x releases... Anyone got more info on that?
