My boss called my house around 6:30 this morning to tell me that the office was going to be closed today, and Angela’s boss did the same even earlier, so we have a 4 day weekend to celebrate the holiday.

    Lots of folks are pitching a fit with MS over this bad boy, and certainly MS deserves some blame for the faults in their software. On the other hand, Outlook is getting better at recognizing dangerous attachments (at least the beta of 2003 seems to me to be better at it), it’s starting to not…
