I did try and find out why it freezes in one of their pages, but it says something about having more than one ie installed, or something similar. Well I run IE 5.5, and only that. So I gave up. I run Nortons, and zone alarm, and hope for the best. One day I am going to have to try and figure out how to reformat, so when something really drastic happens, guess that will be the time.

Restore brings my PC back with all drivers and software as it was when last imaged , makes life easy when it comes to upgrading HDD s as well
