Kevin Hey... you are right! Of course, I had to try it myself. Even though it says "Respond OK At Own Risk!" you have no other choice short of killing the process or turning off you machine. It reminds me of a time when I enjoyed terrorizing some of the users of one of my systems by kicking off a background process when they logged on that slept for several minutes then popped up a message "Reformat Hard Drive? Press any key to continue". They looked like deer frozen in the headlights of car. Regards Tom ps: The message had a timer on it, so even if they did not touch anything, after 1 minute the message "Formatting drive.." would display and the program started writing stuff to the disk to make it look like some activity was taking place. I am sure they will never forgive me.
