Is Homer no longer announcing "mail call"? I have noticed that he hasn't been around for awhile and I was wondering if it is just my computer or has the function been stopped. Just curious.
Thanks, HARV

Harv,
For many users Homer was causing a pop-up warning about running an active control or some such. I think this happened after a Windows or IE update. Sadly I retired Homer from active duty.
But if I can figure out a way to put him back and not have the warning box come up I would.

Thanks Jim,
I was just curious. As a very long time Simpsons fan I really liked that part of logging on!

Homer caught me out a couple of times when I logged onto the site at work
So his absence isn't a total disaster....

I changed my work e-mail announcement to Homer. No problems at all, and I still hear him on a daily basis.Homer caught me out a couple of times when I logged onto the site at work

Thanks everyone for your replys to my post.
Thank you Al for providing me with a way to get my Homer fix!
Robin, how did you set it up to have Homer announce that you have mail? My computer knowledge is limited when it comes to things like that. "Doh"!!
Thanks again everyone, HARV
