BM: The siz e of the code boggles the mind. I don't know how they maintain it. For anyone here who has ever written code they should just think back to the last time they went back into something they wrote (say 6 mos. ago) and think about their first stabs at figuring out why they wrote this way and what this code was all about. I don't think the lawyers have a clue at just how difficult a task all of this is. Knowing Jackson he might be satisfied if MSFT stamped NSCP on the Windows CD ROM. Come to think of it so would AOL if they could get a royalty on that which isn't theirs. JFD
