Now a question for the computer experts - is it possible to design an
e-mail that automatically downloads something when the e-mail is
opened?  I don't think so, but I have heard some conflicting remarks
on this.

Hi Paul,
 
As far as I know, a user will always be asked for permision to save a file
or open a file on his/her system. E-mail can only suply you with a link to
some program you can download. At least I've NEVER seen an e-mail that
automaticaly downloads a file.
 
I hope I was of any help...
