So, what are you going to do? I take it you can't use a system that's going to fail at any given time. There's not even a bug report filed, and if one is filed, how long would it be to get a fix? It's been almost two months. I can't tolerate this any more. I'm thinking of the U-word. -- "...heart and soul....one will burn." - Joy Division
