You really make me laugh, Don. Thanks so much for your humor. Disk defrag was perfect. And no, I haven't backed up yet. I have to leave for several hours, and when I come back, I'll really concentrate on the other emails yoo and Troth sent me. But just a quick thing now, that I discovered this morning when looking at Component Services. A provider, Off Prov 10 has been registered in teh WMI name space. ROOT\MASPPS 10 but did not specify the HostingModel Property. This provider will be run using the LocalSystem account. This account is privileged and the provider may cause a security violation if it does not correctly impersonate user requests. There's more to that message. If it's meaningful, I'll send the rest. And yes, I need to correct whatever is wrong YESTERDAY. I'm a seller on eBay, and currently have items being bid on. My nightmare is losing everything, and not being able to service, run, fulfull, etc. etc. all that's entailed in having an eBay store.
