Well, whaddaya know! In the course of some experimenting I just set my Eudora mailer to use the uSoft "Explorer"-based viewer instead of its own internal viewer.

I was reviewing some old messages on the Urabus list at egroups, and ran into one that had html in it. AND MY SYSTEM JUMPED UP, DIALED THE NET, AND DOWNLOADED A MOVING AD FOR THE BOTTOM OF THE MESSAGE. When I left that message and came back to it, IT DID IT AGAIN.
