Until I got my high speed line, I didn't even think about updating. It would simply take too long. Consequently, I've not kept in memory certain things like the file you reference above. Thank you. Andy (High speed is awesome. I just updated Firefox to 2.0.0.5, or something similar, and it took only 3 - 4 minutes to down load the 35mb *.bz2 file. I wouldn't have even thought about it before hand.)
