Connie, When I read your reply as well as the input from others I had a real chuckle. Bob asked if it was male or female. Definately male....... promises the world and then ??? As a female I will endure (I think!) A sense of humour is mandatory in the world of computers. I am starting to get back to how I would like things. got rid of the yucky desktop he put on,( the expert tech that is) all the noises, trimmed the startup, got rid of 8 copies of Sygate ... how they got there is beyond me, then there was the popup asking if I was still in Australia etc. Think you get the general idea.
