    Am running Win 98Se and Mozilla 1.7.3 and have 2 email accounts with my current ISP dial-up and have installed DSL and have 2 new email accounts. How do I transfer the contents of each old account into the new ones? Just copy everything in each folder to the new account? Now also I must get a firewall.

    You should follow the method which I outlined in another post . Since the new accounts are different, and the old accounts are no longer active, you should Rename the files, and have them as Archives.
    As for a Firewall the free Zone Alarm has been a good friend of mine, for years.
    Try this link for downloads . Don't fall for all the sales pitches.

    Thanks for the reply--the old accounts are still active until the end of the month and they will be basically the same accounts. Thanks for the link to Zone Alarm-I think I will try the free one-I was going to download the firewall from CA since I have their ezTrust antivirus but I may try Zone alarm first.
