Ah, I use SM on my better machines but noticed it uses more RAM to me.

And money that might have gone to wages went for gas, for guns, for agents and spies, for blacklists, for drilling. On the highways the people moved like ants and searched for work, for food. And the anger began to ferment." --John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath Note: A fixed width font (Courier, Monospace, etc.) is required to see this signature correctly. /\___/\ Phil./Ant(Dude) @ http://antfarm.ma.cx (Personal Web Site) / /\ /\ \ Ant's Quality Foraged Links: http://aqfl.net | |o o| | E-mail: phi...@earthlink.net/a...@zimage.com \ _ / If crediting, then please kindly use Ant nickname ( ) and AQFL URL/link.
