Elmer, I'm afraid that as long as the capability to enable is on the chip that the "problem" won't go away. The privacy groups view this as a "foot in the door". Jim

>>>Intel responded immediately and decisively<<< No they didn't, this technology belongs on motherboards, not chips which more easily migrate from one PC to another. By leaving the technology on the chip, the possibility that Microsoft will demand its enabling is a real possibility. Welcome to Office 2000 installation. Since you are running on a Pentium III chip, please enable hardware security on your chip and restart installation... otherwise, enter your social security number. Petz
