Why should your system stop just because it has work to do? I get large attachments all the time with no lockup, even if the machine gets busy it still works through it, and its not a very powerful box. (If I told you how whimpy it was you'd laugh). How much memory do you have? Perhaps another stick of ram is the cheap fix? -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
