AND why does my e mail have to be re-checked into 'protected' each time I start my computer? It's O K during use but it used to be permanently set to 'protect'- now I can't find the button to set this.	Guest (0)

Cheers ( I should also add that I like reading your postings, most informative)	Guest (0)

Thanks tweak'e- I raced into the city - bought a Norton's 2002 and everything that has gone wrong of late - ie erratic cursor, no vetting e mail until it was manually set up each start up, 'no automatic update' etc etc - all gone - the Norton's 2001 in it's death throes must have been violating everything. May you live long and die oblong as the saying goes	Guest (0)
