Please advise on exactly what I must do - before I do something stupid. I have found "Pacifist" but not yet downloaded it. I take they will want my $20 before I can use it. I take that my Instal disk will have to be in for it to work. >> don't forget to repair priviliges(sp) >> with DU. HTHs Please explain the above. If someone can explain what I need to do in ABC terms, I shall be so grateful. I retired 12 years ago. I always told my students: he/she who asks a question may be a fool for a moment. Those who don't ask will be fools for life.
