Yea I tried Adobe reader, and have it installed. My problem is now whenever I click on a link that doesn't open right away, and I get the box that says open or save to disk, and I choose to open it tries to open with this stupid real time player, and I don't have any other options, it just pops up. I need to reset something to at least give me options. It seems as tho this is now my default app. for opening these things.

Hi tc, apologies if this has been noted before.

Neat. Disable the filters in local ISP's e-mail program.
When mail arrives download into mailwasher. Now choices are, DELETE or BOUNCE. You see a gist of the e-mail, sender,ect:
Now send balance on to regular e-mail inbox. Worked very nicely for me just now. Hope i can say same later. Had 38 spam e-mails infilter basin. Have to continually empty this. Now not needed. By bouncing perhaps sender will get message I'm not home!!!

PMS Witch, are you there???

this is the actual radio conversation of a US naval ship with Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland in October 1995. Radio conversation released by the chief of naval operations, 10-10-95.

CANADIANS: Please divert your course 15 degrees to the south
to avoid a collision.

AMERICANS: Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees to the north to avoid a collision.

CANADIANS: Negative. You will have to divert your course 15
degrees to the south to avoid a collision.

AMERICANS: This is the captain of a US Navy ship. I say
again, divert YOUR course.

CANADIANS: No, I say again, you divert YOUR course.

AMERICANS: This is the Aircraft Carrier US LINCOLN, the
second largest ship in the United States Atlantic Fleet. We are accompanied with three Destroyers, three Cruisers and numerous support vessels. I DEMAND that you change your course 15 degrees north. I say again, that's
one-five degrees north, or counter-measures will be undertaken to ensure the safety of this ship.

CANADIANS: This is a lighthouse. Your call.
