Outlook Express and Web Bugz

["Gregh" <chows () ozemail com au>]

Just wondering if anyone can clear this simple answer up.

Assume someone has sent me an email with a web bug in it for whatever
reason.

I pick up my email and see it sitting there ready to read but what I do next
is tell OE to go OFFLINE but not hang up on the connection. I read the email
and decide it isn't worth keeping and then delete it.

The way I see it - and someone else brought this to my attention - that
actually defeats a web bug of ANY sort.

Can someone tell me where I am wrong if so, please and HOW? If this is
right, then it is a simple answer to that problem.

Greg.
