     -Disable VBS
scripting, that stops a raft of buggies right there.
   - disable open after preview for 5sec .
   - disable auto display of pictures
   - enable empty deleted folder on close (delete really does then).
 Thats just a few of the simpler things that really do help.  - and default to TEXT
for e-mail

If those were the DEFAULTS, what percentage of the problems would be
