This is best done on the server, not on the clients. Besides, there
will be many people who will never see the graphic. Put the
disclaimer in plain text, if you must include one. By the way, court
cases involving the presence of disclaimers seem to indicate they do
not protect the company that includes one, so they're legally
worthless.
My favorite....wish I knew who the author was, to give him or her proper
credit:
IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: This email is intended for the use of the individual
addressee(s) named above and may contain information that is confidential
privileged or unsuitable for overly sensitive persons with low self-esteem,
no sense of humor or irrational religious beliefs. If you are not the
intended recipient, any dissemination, distribution or copying of this email
is not authorized (either explicitly or implicitly) and constitutes an
irritating social faux pas. Unless the word absquatulation has been used in
its correct context somewhere other than in this warning, it does not have
any legal or grammatical use and may be ignored. No animals were harmed in
the transmission of this email, although the elaphe next door is living on
borrowed time, let me tell you. Those of you with an overwhelming fear of
the unknown will be gratified to learn that there is no hidden message
revealed by reading this warning backwards, so just ignore that Alert Notice
from Microsoft. However, by pouring a complete circle of salt around
yourself and your computer you can ensure that no harm befalls you and your
pets. If you have received this email in error, please add some nutmeg and
egg whites, whisk and place in a warm oven for 40 minutes.
