And even that has been at least a couple years. Troubleshooting rules-of-thumb: 1. If you have a problem in Windows, reboot... 2.

These two steps solve 99% of all computing problems in the known universe. :-) --Dan ** The thing I like most about Windows 98 is... ** You can download FreeBSD with it!
