Oh, don't get me wrong -- I don't need it for games and I disable it, and a lot that you probably don't. (Netmeeting uses it). I usually just plug right into the internet if I want to use it, but sometimes in a work environment it's best not to rock the boat. I bet I'm the only one on this list who's ever had read-only access to the Whistler tree. (I bet some vendors see quite a bit, and you really can learn it all with Inside Windows 2000 and the kernel debugger.) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
