With the ini file system, you could still have multiple users with different configurations. This is what the 'start in:' option in shortcut properties are for. You install TB! once, but you'll have separate folders each containing it's own ini file and mail directories etc. The advantage is that you could use different configurations within the same user space. No need to logon as a different user to get to a different HKCU. Of, course, you can do it the logon way as well. Just place the start-in directory in each users own user space. You could also easily have two separate installations working with, *at the same time*, if you like. A test installation and a working installation. Not to mention portability. Wayne mentioned security in in his USB solution but didn't directly mention the real advantage of what he was proposing, i.e., a portable installation. This could relieve the headache of some having to keep installations synchronised. Just use the same installation all the time. I really think this is the way to go. - -- Allie C Martin \ TB! v1.62/Beta1 & Windows XP Pro List Moderator / PGP Key - http://pub-key.ac-martin.com ' -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iEYEARECAAYFAj1bjE8ACgkQV8nrYCsHF+I/dwCg8sB4kmhd5X1jIpaq3DiQQSZv vUMAoNYYJSeD69ZP9sbduFvXe9+Iot14 =9KBH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________________ Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
