hi,

I'm looking for a summary of a book: S.T.Coleridge : The Rime of the Ancient Mariner. Could you give me a site's name where I could find about it?

thank you beforehand

hi, Bobk

I have tried to open this site but my computer warn me not to open it as it might contain harmful viruses.

Are you using a school/college computer? Some places I've worked at block certain sites to prevent plagiarism.

ps - I don't mean to down-play the risk of viruses in general, but I know a certain amount about HTTP and IP, and I don't see how a computer can 'know' that a particular site is risky. OK, an HTTPS site is less risky than an HTTP site, but there are lots of HTTP sites that aren't.

...but now I see that McAfee are giving away free (to McAfee users) something called Site Advisor. Which just goes to show - my knowledge of Internet security was Best Before End 2003.

This should set at few minds at rest:
