Lee, Both the killmb.com and killhd.com are programs used by the Libretto 100CT Configuration Builder CD, and for that matter most the Configuration Builder CDS for most other models of Toshiba notebook. A number of virus programs will falsely identify them as virus(s), but they are not. They are used to prep the system/hard drive before re-installing the factory configuration from the CD.

Date: Sat, 11 May 2002 17:03:53 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: killmbr=killmb? The Libretto 100CT Recovery/Backup boot diskette which comes with the Lib has a file in the BIN subdirectory labeled killmb.com. After copying this floppy to a directory on my desktop HDD for safekeeping, then running NAV, Norton reports this file as the virus KillMBR.g and suggests quarantine or deletion. Norton then blocked my attempt at copying this file from the floppy to the HDD, again identifying it as the killmbr.g virus. I am assuming this is a mistake of NAV; can anyone confirm from their copy of the Lib boot diskette that a file called A:\BIN\killmb.com exists? There is also a file called killhd in the same directory - anyone know what these do, if they're not virii? Thanks.

Steve, As it turns out, I think I will go for $24 for 10 hours access, additional hours at $3-4/hr. I think I would be hard pressed to use all 10 hours (the wife is coming along...) in the five days, besides, I can justify $24 as a one-time expense - compared to the cost of the trip, it is a bargain. One thing I like to do with vacations is calculate my base burn rate, I take the amount of money I am paying (let's say $1,000), then divide that by the number of hours (call it 96, 4 days), then my burn rate is $10/hr just *being* there (this of course, takes into account the cost of getting there, the cost of eating while there, and all the disposable purchases I make while I am there). My burn rate for this trip is about $25/hr - if I add another $24 to the total expense of the trip, my cost goes up to $25.20/hr... It is easy, the ISP is willing to waive any one-time setup fees, so the total out-of-pocket is $24. BTW, the Bermudian Phone Co. has a surcharge for spending more than 60 minutes on one call... Interesting.

As a result it is treating you like a member with an unpaid account. Cis used a program called Virtual key. Go to Control Panel and then add/remove programs. You will want to remove virtual key if it is there as well as any other CompuServe specific software. This is what I got from Cis, but I don't have any of these programs on my system and it still logs me in under my correct id, so I suspect there may be a cookie somewhere with this info in it.

Unfortunately there really aren't any other lists of this caliber for the other Toshiba products, even though several have been attempted.
