A suggestion for long-winded posts or those that take time to compose:
Use a text processor like NotePad to develop and save your post. When you are ready, re-check the thread to see if there has been any activity since you started your post, then create a post, copying your NotePad document.
P.S. Also, I never log out. I just exit when closing down. When I restart, everything is ready to go.

Tim, I run Win 98 on a Gateway zombie laptop. I call it a zombie because it should be dead but it's not. It was thrown at one time, it's held together with furnace tape and given to me by a friend. It's only got 96 meg of RAM, In contrast it has a 20 gig hardrive, that's nowher near 1/4 used, so much for "virtual memory", it has serious memory problems.
Firefox is what I am forced to used, IE and Netscape are not to my speed of working. I'm still running everything 32 bit and will until I can get a Mac, I'm finished with PC/Microsoft pairing.
Thanks for the suggestions you have been a help
Grace and peace brother
Tony
