Nope... I DO run Qmouse, FR_bypass (Khallid), Switcher (Khalid), 
setbeep to small sound, virusx 4.01, and Starblanker...
Occasionally I use Gomf2.0... but not usually...
 
Not too much for a 5 meg machine, huh???

That's about it... and, there's no GURU when I dance on the keyboard..
NO GURU... just REBOOT. No warning shot, no nothing... Hm... Hm... Hm.....

Anyone else care to try? 

Also.. I find that if I JAM the keyboard connecter into the 2000,
it does it less... Short? Nah.. Maybe...hm...
