If I worked for a company that allowed wavs or movs to kick off upon opening, I would ensure whoever was in charge of that email system was removed immediately.

It depends on the email/webmail client. if configured to do so, why not? I remember very old versions of Outlook Express on Windows 98 could do that.

You could always send as an attachment and rename it, "video of you naked" or some other tempting title.

Bugger.

How very disappointing.

I'd bet a title like "vid of you shagging a sheep" would get a definite response.

I shall eventually want to send a cretin an email with the "surprise mother****er" bit from "Dexter" season 2 embedded in it.

TIA.
