Hi Tom
So are you saying in not so many words that the "re-release" of SP1 is not
better than the first attempt?
I have decided to take a back set on the SP1 for a while to see what the
other users have to say. At Present my ISA is about 98% stable, so I do not
want to rock the boat like I did the first time I installed SP1 and SMPT
stopped working!
Regards
David Kusner
