ok the evolution freezing every few seconds only happens on my 64 bit box... on my 9.2 32 bit it does not freeze.. i havent checked the version numbers but i thought i was the only one that had that problem.. and what i was gettin at before is that ill get and email that is a reply to what i wrote and it will be indented.. and if there is a reply to a reply in that email it will be included in the new email but indented even further... unless someone ran a script to make it do that.. but i think its whatever email program they r using. i guess ill look for bat and see what its about :) -- jason pearl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ++++++++++++++++++ "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer"-Tupac ++++++++++++++++++ Kurrupted Visionz Phx, AZ registered linux user #307811 MDK 9.2 Linux http://counter.li.org AMD64 Opteron 1.6 ASUS SK8N
