Congratulations, you're responsible for the single most long lived piece 
of software on my computer.  By that, I mean it's been installed on every 
system I've owned since about 1993 when I had a 486DX2/66 with 4 Megs of 
Ram...  (the fact that I've now got more RAM in my system than I had HDD 
space in my first system is beside the point :)

Bye for now,
     Jamie.
