MM, i've got 4.0 loaded. i use it rarely...but i won't do 5.0. Yep, me too... If Microsoft tried anything halfway as boneheaded as the AOL install, the peasants would light the torches and march on Redmond. But AOL gets away with it... First, I think it very much resembles a Mr. Softie technique. Second, I am not convinced they will "get away with it"...at least I hope not. I have yet to decide if it is arrogance or just a significant error in judgement. More foam than beer, JCC
