   In a message on Sunday 10-21-16 Ed Vance said to Holger Granholm:   
      
   Hi Ed,   
      
    HG> You read too much, and believe, that what you read is the only truth.   
      
   EV> I AM Selective about my reading but I occasionally read the views of   
   EV> others.   
      
   You say 'occasionally', but I think you read'em all.   
      
    EV> I had one big problem with Thunderbird when several thousand   
    EV> messages in the In-Box got cleared out after I compacted TB.   
      
   I have an unresolved problem with FaceBook. It has ceased to show the   
   new pictures sent to me. I don't yet know the cause.   
      
   EV> Recently I read a TB Web Page that said to move messages from the   
   EV> In-Box to another area.   
      
   You have several options in TB, but I prefer to copy/move messages that   
   I want to save, out of TB, because I think that 'Archive'd messages are   
   saved on the ISP, and available only as long as you are connected.   
      
   If you care about the space that the saved text messages occupy on your   
   HD, save them as *.txt files. That way you get rid of the MetaData that   
   is included in all Windows files, and you'll still have all the text.   
      
   EV> I learned that I must had accidently clicked the Link on MWB's   
   EV> screen to start the Trial Period for their Premium version.   
      
   EV> I think that Link is at the bottom right of the MWB window.   
      
   I'll check that sometime, but right now AVG and ZA are doing what they   
   are designed to, I think!!   
      
   But I still would like to get an anti advertising program.   
   As I wrote before, the AdAware program has now become a full-fledged   
   anti-virus program.   
      
    HG> 73 de Sam OH0NC es GN ..._._   
    HG> _____________________   V  A  not SK, which means Silent Key.   
      
   EV> I was reading a web page about the History of Ham Radio and noticed   
   EV> that writer explained Silent Key meant both terms.   
      
                             __   
   Yes they do, but I prefer VA as a sign off of a QSO.   
      
      
   Have a good night,   
      
   Holger
