}  Just to pick a _very_ small nit here: I don't know about "MouseProtect", but
}I can say for sure that "MacMenu" is not a "renamed" version of Mousetrap.
}Mousetrap sends the mouse to the menu bar with a click of the right button;
}MacMenu requires a left button press before you can move into the menu bar.

}  (Yeah, it's trivial, but I don't want people to think that the author of
}MacMenu was a cheapo renamed copy of the excellent Mousetrap)

}						B-)

    Yeah, that's a valid nit.  But --  is the answer for the "MouseTrap"
  derivatives still valid for "MacMenu"? 
    I would like to use this feature on my Mega.  If there are any other
  programs to do this please let me know the names and availability info
  about them.
  
              Cheers,
                  Terry
