Sounds like this is a bug in "more"! Actually, Control-C is used by a user who specifically wants to exit RIGHT NOW (emergency exit) with a very short path thru any code that could hang. It is NOT meant as a non-emergency exit signal. In short, Studded is right, you are not. Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.
