Also to anyone.

My Norton System Doctor keeps reminding me to create a rescue disk set. When I start to obey it, it tells me I need both a zip disk and a floppy disk.

I see I have a zip disk I labeled "Norton Zip Rescue Disk," though because there's no date on it, it's possible I set out to do this and never did.

If there is something on that zip disk, can I still use it, sorta like taping over a previously used tape, or should I use a brand new one each time?

I guess I should also ask how I can be sure whether a disk has something on it or not. Just put it in the drive and stare at the monitor to see if something happens?

Eagle, I'm using 4.6 and it's still here on mine.
Edit
Preference
+ Sign in front of Advanced
Drop down shows Cache just like old.

Maybe install it again?????

Regards, /jw

ps; can't help with Norton. Don't use.(well maybe). Put zip in machine, right click on Start, left click on Explor, find Zip and
double click and you should read programs installed on Zip. This
works with me and my LS 120 3½" floppy. If you copy a file to zip it shouldn't erase what's there.

hi eagle,

did jw's suggestion get you what you were looking for? i bet it did.

incidently, if you want to see what's what with cache files on netscape, type about:cache in the location bar and hit enter.
