I've seen that a few times as well. However, when it happened, it was on a 486 so I got a clear shot of what it said. Updating Netscape Registry It happens rarely, and I can't pinpoint exactly why, but I've seen no adverse effects of it. Rich

hi david "Anyone have any idea what happened?" yes. now i do. <g3> this from netscape newsgroup.... "Communicator updates _IT's_ registry (Not Windows Registry) every 60 days. The Communicator registry is located in the /windows/ directory and the filename is NSREG.DAT .. There is NO interaction/update with the Windows registry whatsoever." interestingly, i've recently taken to rebuilding the netscape registry (not as complicated as it sounds...i deleted the nsreg.dat file) in order to fix a recurring invalid page fault prob. hope this helps :) mark
