Grant? Allow me to ask this question to you or brooce as I didn't here of
this! Are you saying the Demo runs for 40 days with out asking for reboots?
Weird, unless FS updated the demo or something, I thought the demo version
requires a reboot after 40 minutes regardless of full or not. regards,
Keith.
Note: I like this list. I think I can get along with brooce or anyone else
on here. JFWLite another JAWS list, I kept crawssing subject lines, untill
Debbi put me on moderated stattace, when I did taht again, I was kict off.
Back then I was using AOL.
I'd try setting up Outlook Express to check hotmail, as I do not need forms
mode to right in OE.
Regards, once again and to everyone viewing this, Keith! And happy new year
of course. Smiles! Cheres
