Yup. Read it again. SHERLOCK IS FOR THE INTERNET and no longer is in

either.

Um I don't think so...LOL. And this is NOT Sherlock 2...

Sherlock, on this version of Mac Os, is FOR SEARCHING THE INTERNET and
won't even open unless you have an internet connection.

Doesn't work because I repeat. SHERLOCK= INTERNET.

It's not anywhere since this is NOT Sherlock 2. Sorry.
