It appears that I've been hit by a MS Email bug. I use Thunderbird for my email client. Thunderbird downloaded a java laden email automatically that had an attachment. I saw it and deleted the email right away, emptying the trash right afterwards. Later, I was unable to start Thunderbird. After several attempts, I then tried to start Evolution. It would not start either. Restarting the computer was no help. I can only conclude that I got hit by a bug. I have posted this on Bugzilla as a security related issue. I thought that I should let people know about this. Lloyd Lloyd Hayes Web Journal: http://lloyd_hayes.bravejournal.com/ Web Site: http://talkingstaff.bravehost.com
