Well, yes, possibly, it could have. My netinfo has been corrupted a few times myself, but never in the way yours seems to have bee (complete lockup, etc)...Well, one way that MIGHT work (no guarantees on ANY of this message)...is to kick into NetinfoManager (/NextAdmin) and look around for anything that looks screwy. Most likely, if one part is screwed, most everything else will be, too (if my understanding of Netinfo isn't way off). Um, you can from there delete most anything that is screwed by hand. I know this is tedious, and there probably is a better way, but I cannot think of one off the top of my head. >Thanks again, >-dave. I hope it helps. john -- | John R.
