Just another example of Microsoft protecting you from your self. I don't really mind automation, as long as I also can turn it off when I want too. And perhaps it is changeable through reconfiguring the helper apps. I hadn't thought of that. >I hope she wasn't using the expression schmiel at you BTW! Nah, Just a little daily dose of humorous humility to keep me, as Swami Beyonananda puts it, in regularhilarity. You know, a daily laughsitive? (sorry) ;-) Dave PS As a resident of the DC area who like every one else is finally able to not worry about a sniper after 3 weeks, I can tell you, laughter feels MUCH nicer than ducking and scurrying and worrying. ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
