Hall... I appreciate your comments, but hasten to reply that the only thing comparable to the arrogance of Microsoft is the reverse arrogance of their detractors. I would have sworn that my questions to this list were in the interest of dealing with my own, personal frustrations over MS, as I look for a workable alternative. If you don't want to sympathize with the person who is making that transition, fine, but don't gunk up the list with condescension. I recognized the PGP signature, but simply did not understand why the text of a post was also coming as an attachment. If you don't know either, just say so -- or don't say anything -- and leave it for someone who does know.
Finally, there is no such thing as being overeducated concerning security and the exercise of caution. Over 30 years of computing experience from IRIX to Windows(tm) has taught me that much. rpb ================= R. P.
