You are not asked again while the program is running. It does perform as
advertised. There is more than one way to interpret the dialog box's text.



IIRC, it is not a bug, it is a design decision that was discussed at length
somewhere and some when in these newsgroups. Gnnnnn ! I began downloading
all of the 35910 messages in p.general to find the thread... but I just
calculated this download will complete in around 8 hours, so I'll just post
this now. (I am not even sure it was in p.gen...)
