There's nothing wrong, db ! - Just a "glitch" in the dialog-box. In fact you ARE in medium level. You can check it : open a file-manager (i.e. Konqueror in KDE of Nautilus in Gnome) and try to read someting in a directory not belonging to you, for example : /root or another users files. Impossible ! - There's a command-line option to check the levels as well, but I don't remember it, sorry. Anyway : it's allright. Regards Kaj haulrich
