I'd like to say thanks to all the nice folk that sent replies (on and
off the list). I'm looking into some of the suggestions I got and am
waiting for the network folks here to get back to me. I think I have
a pretty decent chance of staying connected using Debian with all the
info I got and the backup of my supervisor, a Mac aficionado :-). He
pointed out that it might be more cost and security effective to stop
using M$IE and Exchange altogether rather than invest in anti-virus
software. I'd personally add Windoze to the list, though ;-).
