Thanks... that doesn't appear to be the case here, than I can tell, but I appreciate the info. I've no problems opening OpenOffice & other programs, just MS Office programs. So I'm defragging (defraggler and will reinstall MS Office 97 to see if that clears the problem. If not, then I'll file a bug report with the full logs given that it is (currently reproducible). PS: no need to cc me on post replies; I read the list & will get replies here thanks :-) > > On Sun, 2009-04-19 at 12:32 -0700, NoOp wrote: >> On 04/15/2009 11:54 PM, David C.
