CatLady, Thank you for taking charge. AutoRefresh at the top of my list. I have not used new SI much since early stages of the Beta but if the "to" as well as "from" Ignore feature is there that is great. - Eric -

Let me add my thanks to Catlady for her hassles. I don't really have a preference order--I would like to see ALL the features discussed above. I don't see why they just don't buy BM from Craig and be done with the matter. Yamakita

CL, BrowseMaster author Craig Richards just pointed out on the BrowseMaster thread: "The QuickScan (display at least X but less than Y characters) and auto-refresh features are only enabled for those who bought the premium activation key. So many BrowseMaster users may not be familiar with these 2 features." It might be important to keep this in mind. Some individuals checking in here might not be aware of the significance of these features. - Eric -
