I was just checking out gmail, seeing if it’s any better than Yahoo! Under viruses it mentions:
“Most computer viruses are contained in executable files, but while standard virus detectors scan messages for executable files that appear to be viruses, Gmail takes this one step further by not allowing executable files to be sent or received.”
What are executable files? We’ll be wanting to send Word docs as attachments – would these be allowed?
To sign up to gmail you need to be invited by someone who already has gmail. Anyone care to invite me?
