Hi Charles .. Re:"BTW, who is Bob Seager" That was an incorrect spelling should have been Seger. Home town, according to the Live Bullet album, is Ann Arbor MI. Very interesting question .. someone pointed out that I had the name misspelled .. so I edited my profile and changed the spelling. Then I edited my profile again a couple of weeks ago and removed the reference to him .. hummm .. just checked out the SI classic version and found out that none of the changes were made there .. Thanks for asking .. cleaned up some stuff. Re "Your willingness to suggest AOL might be to blame wouldn't have anything to do with your favorite stock picks, would it?" Nope .. was just wondering out loud .. any bias on my part would be the result of the long hours that I just spent cleaning up the mess it left behind. Although now that you mention it .. they might be a good one to purchase puts on .. As far as Microsofts patch being a good target to for setting up a virus in .. well .. I just get the impression that AOL would be a simpler target .. but you are correct .. that would be a very good launching spot! Now as for blame .. I dunno .. seems that there will be enough of that to go around when the dust settles. As I said in the other post .. these systems crapped out when the IE5 part of the AOL upgrade tried to take place. Again .. for what it's worth .. Gersh
