The only WIN I have on this system is NT, and -- to give you an idea -- the last
time I booted into NT has to be 2 1/2 weeks ago. So this question is coming from
someone with (arguably) sub-par Windows knowledge. I always steered clear of
Outlook, so that isn't a factor. What is the WIN scripting host (is this
anything to do with Win-Basic, or Active-X ?), and how would I make sure it is
disabled . . . if in fact it ever was enabled here ?
