　　E-mail is one of the biggest threats(威脅)to your home computer．By understanding how E-mail works, and by taking some steps in how you deal with reading and writing messages, you can keep this threat out of your computer．When you exchange E-mail with someone else, the messages sent between you and that person pass through several computers before they reach their places．Imagine this conversation as it is taking place in an Internet "room", a very, very big room．Anyone, or more exactly, any program can probably understand what is being said, because most Internet conversations are not hidden in any way．As a result, others may be listening in, capturing(捕獲)what you send, and using it for their own good．

Hello Sandy,

We have just returned from our holiday. We went with our friends Edward Smith and his wife Tina to the Yorkshire Moors. This is a beautiful place. It is a natural park. There are lots of places to walk on the tops of the hills, miles of grassland with no people, just sheep and birds.

Edward, who had just come out of hospital, could not walk as far as be used to. However this meant that we walked in the mornings, and then stopped at a cafe for lunch each day, before returning to the place we live. Edward and I slept in front of the fire all afternoon, while the ladies went for another walk. Very pleasant!

I have taken lots of photos from the place we live, across the valley（峽谷）below us, of the morning sunrise, and the mist in the valley. Also, in England, the old steam powered trains（蒸汽火車）are very popular. I have taken many photos of the train and from it.

Yesterday we had the first snow of this winter. It is very early （we usually expect snow in January）. It rained all day, then snowed in the evening. Today we have bright sunshine!

Both Jenny and I are well I don’t know if I told you, in the last e-mail, that Jenny is now working in a hotel. Although she has to work hard, people there are nice and she is enjoying the work.

Please write to us to tell us your news.

Yours,

Victor
