Unreliable that is in keeping a connection for the *several* hours required to do a full install. Is there anyway to get the install to restart where it left off? Any other advice on this? -- Stan Brown stanb@netcom.com 404-996-6955 Factory Automation Systems Atlanta Ga. -- Look, look, see Windows 95. Buy, lemmings, buy! Pay no attention to that cliff ahead...
