Sorry Keith
I misread your question
I wasn't using the web interface
I was using outlook 2000
Hope I haven't caused too much confusion

I read then Virus mails through the Yahoo! groups web interface in
IE5.5 under Win2k. Like you, Keith, I experienced browser address bar
strangeness, but neither Norton Antivirus with latest updates or the
fixsircam.com thing have detected anything amiss subsequently, so it
seems that it is safe, at least for my config.
