But why *would* web page photos be in yenc?

I can understand why posters would use yenc in usenet to significantly
boost post retention for people on low retention servers, or to cut
size for those outside of USA who are usually on pay per GB or GB
limited ISP accounts.

So get one of the free or low-cost tools (under US$25) which will allow you
see them. Or don't. Your choice. Just know going in that whichever way you
choose, your choice will do _nothing_ to make those who post pix post using
YENC or not using YENC. What you can or can't see on USENET is entirely in
your hands.

Well you aren't too bright are you? The things you mention all come standard
on a new car, just like OE comes standard on a new computer..
Adding eYenc to your computer is like adding foglights to your new car. You
might get fog once in a while, but you can get along without them...

Yeah Norton comes standard too. It sucks and is worse than the viruses at
times. So I got rid of it and Downloaded AVG.
Windowscomes with paint and a few other image programs but would'nt you
rather use a real program like photoshop.
Just because it come with you cpu does not mean it is the one and only
product to use

That analogy, of course, is ridiculous. Computers these days come
will all sorts of stuff on them that isn't necessary--it has even
earned the name "bloatware." OE is no more or less "necessary" than a
competitor's product. If you choose to use it because you just love
anything Microsoft can manage to include anywhere, or are just too
lazy to see if there is anything better, you're welcome to it. But as
a user of Firefox, Eudora Pro, and Agent, I've chosen to use products
that I believe to be better than what Microsoft has come up with. I
don't use stuff just because of some marketing deal that a computer
manufacturer and a software manufacturer have struck.

Russell, you are the kind of soft touch that big corporations love.

Let's see, I use Windows XP, the Office suite, Flight
Simulator...yeah, I guess I hate Ms alright.

I pick and choose; I don't blindly use what's on my machine, as you
apparently do. The fact that you conclude I hate MS just because I
exercise discretion and choose my programs based on their
functionality rather than their maker suggests your capacity for
logical thought is severely limited.

Clairbear, I fear you are coming right up against something software
producers know and love. If you can bury the price of licensing your
software in the cost of a piece of hardware, or include stripped
"trial" versions of your software in a piece of hardware, there are
untold numbers of Russells who will gladly forgo any real thinking and
comparison shopping in favor of doing what's easiest. It's what I
keep saying about this type--they just can't be bothered to lift a
finger to do anything. It reminds of that old "Life Gets Tedious"
song Doc Watson sang, with the hounddog who's sitting on a thorn
howling, but finding it too tedious to move his butt off of it.

[russell[_2_]]

I sure am.
I buy 2 new cars every couple of years for the past 15 years+,
a new computer almost every year, for the last 16 years+
a new camera every year, for the last 4 years,
go on a overseas holiday, most years,
eat KFC and McDonalds,
so yep, the big corp's love me!
