I also let them know that I am going to tell the world about it, so they have a chance to fix things quietly. By the way, I occasionally write software reviews, and software manufacturers really hate 'bad press'. -- uucp: {vax135|ihnp4}!timeinc!wcom!frodo ARPA: 1891@NJIT-EIES.MAILNET@MIT-MULTICS.ARPA "The opinions expressed herein are those of my computer, and not necessarily those of myself, Warner Computer Systems, or any other computer or company along the line.
