Last month, a pgm. called United 1.04, came across comp.binaries.mac After it crashed a few times, I removed all INITS except DE II, and my mac (SE/30, 6.0.3, 5 meg.) crashed every time I tried to run it. What I'm doing, until they release a bug fix, is remove DE II and reinstall it every few days ONLY to do a manual optimization and then remove it again. I lose the benifit of it's monitoring and customized optimization. I still prefer it to the original DiskExpress which required booting from a seperate volume. ah....life...:-( -- ------------ ------------ ---------------------- Ben Liberman USENET magik@chinet.chi.il.us GEnie,Delphi MAGIK
