The option to make recovery disks during the install failed, but on the positive side, the time-limited option to download the recovery/rescue disks from the registration site was still working despite being a month past the cut-off date. It was all a bit unnerving really, and I have never quite trusted givaway software for full use commercial products, IMLE there have always been catches designed to push you toward an early upgrade.

Yip mine did this as well, a bit confusing :D - I had visions of ending up with two copies of PM6 installed. I didn't bother to make a recovery disk as I have Nortons Utilities recovery disk as well as my fresh ghost image if everything went pear-shaped during the process. > I have never quite trusted givaway software for full use commercial products, IMLE there have always been catches designed to push you toward an early upgrade. The catch is version 6 won't work on Win XP. The interface on the version 8 demo I played with is much more polished with a few additional features which may tempt people. Jen	Jen C (20)
