Thank you very much to all. Lazy and gentlemien After moments of extreme peril and fear, when I thought I would lose my life, I finally come back to the X world. It's very hard to go X-less...

Thanks again. - -- cyb -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/VqzO4eVBtrgQWDsRAszgAJ9yjy8U5T9wS//r4JSToJ65E9luegCgtEf7 2CpxEVk/iGcHAKUyALcTGXQ= =HaVg -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
