Well, my theory is that I do not know how to identify the file name in a way that the computer can track. My giving the file a name is not the same as what it wants to see (example D:\ internet files.htm ) and the browse function on the wizard did not give me an accurate identification of the file name. I know this sounds vague, because I don't exactly know what is involved, being I'm about thirty years out of the loop in programming matters <g>. Rick ps. Just exported my bookmarks from IE to Communicator. Geez, by going back and reloading them and importing them on the zip again I have like copies within copies of zillions of bookmarks to sort out now. I'll be playing librarian for a few hours to straighten them out. Good news: Delnet, the freebie isp that came as part of my purchase of the new computer is way faster than Earthlink. It is going to take me awhile to stop worrying about how many windows and programs I can have open as I was constantly doing on my 98 machine. Starting to scheme actively now on networking this W2k machine to the 98 machine to share the faster connection and also to start exploring file sharing etc advantages of being networked. Edit: it could be the new Zoom V92 modem that is faster and/or it could be the way W2k connects through the Zoom that is faster. Guess I'll have to test for that. Hey, I am trying to locate the name of a site that does a really nice security test and I can't remember the name of it and can't find it in the jungle of bookmarks. You know the one I mean?
