Sorry but this is one of my pet hates. You sent 2 (two) image attachments.
One of them was 2.43MB in size... [T43snapshot1.png  image/png (2.43MB)]

Have you any idea how long that ties up people's dialup connections?

Hint: it takes over *ten* minutes to download 2.4MB on the average dial-up
link.

Please, *never* do this again. If you have screenshots, put them on a
server and link to them.

You have wasted the bandwidth and time of countless dialup users with your
thoughtlessness.
