" I am so stunned after nine months of trying to get this done it's hard to stop smiling."

man, that is just so great, it really is. you paid ur dues, huh?

i'm relating to your elation (however on a somewhat reduced level) today cause i had a super clean browser install last night. hahaha. sounds funny, but the last time i tried to upgrade from netscape nav 3.0 to communicator 4.5, all hell broke loose. conflicts and hanging and errors and all manner of carnage! so crappy that i just uninstalled and put 3.0 back on and stuck with it.

well, over time i realized a few changes to make prior and during an install. like turning off every darn thing except explore, and running defrag just prior to install, etc. so i did what seemed like a lot of prep work (also saving bookmarks and address book and mail folders in another place in case they got lost or overwritten) and the difference was amazing!!

so now i'm digging communicator 4.5 and i can put tired, old 3.0 out to pasture. it sure is sweet when it goes your way, huh rick?
