Well, you could try programming more carefully :-) Alternatively, try CTRL/Break. That seems to interrupt even when a program is waiting on a network socket, which CTRL/C doesn't seem to. Note, however, that this terminates the process without raising KeyboardInterrupt. regards Steve -- Steve Holden +44 150 684 7255 +1 800 494 3119 Holden Web LLC/Ltd www.holdenweb.com Love me, love my blog holdenweb.blogspot.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
