Petro I've isolated the problem to this weird anomaly. When the pc starts -- be it from being turned off or on a reboot -- with 8.42 installed, I cannot get to the desktop, the start menu, or the run dialog. I have to go to the system tray and hit enter on Replay AV. Once this is done and I relaunch Window-Eyes, all is well for all system features. At this point, I am not yet sure if I want to live with this; but, for the moment, I can now at least work around it. Incidentally, I did take a look at 8.31 on another pc and it does have the same podcast configuring settings as does 8.42 -- I just never noticed. At this point, I am having both Juice and RAV download podcasts checking every 30 minutes. -- To unsubscribe: e-mail blindreplay-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with unsubscribe in subject To contact list owner: e-mail blindreplay-admins@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
