Tony, Thank you for the response. I tried to click on the link you provided and it didn't work. I did however go out to Ask.com and looked for saypad and it has taken me to another place that says it has this download and another called four blind mice. What exactly is Saypad and four blind mice? This sight doesn't give allot of info on what ever these are.
